I have 15" and 7" wide wheels mate, they tuck up in the arches luvly. Mine is stupidly low but some ppl might not want to go that low.

I dont have any problems with speed bumps even with two ppl in the car (im not the thinnest of ppl either lol)

Check the pics out if u like dude

Oh kool cheers man, Ive acually just bin looking at what youve done. Good job! I might have to do some of the mods youve done, like spraying the door handles, cos mine are peeling and look crappy. how hard is it to get them off?

Best looking option I would say 16's at 7.5J with tyres with a slight stretch. You'd probably go for ***/40/R16 tyres. the lower the offset, the more likely it'd get scrubbage from your arch hence the need for stretched tyres or a raise in height.
