Don't go any bigger than 14 if you aren't gonna lower it - it'll just look like it's on stilts!!!!

But even they look better lowered
picked up a set of Kaylamis (as fitted to Lupos) with good tyres on and as the splitties where due for a polish fitted them on the car....
Hmm much better - they really don't look like 14's tho.....
Summer wheels
Damm those wheels now made it look bus high!!!!! - not lowered
Fitted a set of second hand
progressive lowering springs all round (had them shot blasted and powder coated in satin black first - same as the wheels) so now it's 40-50mm lower
None of the above pictures show the wheels off at their best so........
BBS RX2's

Purfect - comfortable on the dual and M-ways and stiffens up in the bends

Nope - but it's similar - I wanted just a small lip spoiler to stop water running down the glass - colour coded it and fitted it myself
