Default Series 1

Hey people, newbie here

General query . . .

Just wondered if there was any work required for 17's on a series one??

Also does any one have any pics of theirs on 17's or escort cossie rims?

Your help would be appreciated.

Cheers

17 inch is no problem, if the width of the wheel doesn't increase much. Try not to go wider than 7 inch and you'll be fine with 40 series tires and a ET of 35-40mm. Watch out of the width because most 17 inch wheels come with a width of 8 inches.
