that's photoshop Oz did to preview what they would look like. (good job mang!)

but those, if actual, would seem to be 19's.

i would go for 17's. keep in mind, the skinnier tire the harder the ride and rim-scratch vulnerability.

if you want the normal size for ours, it's 205/40/17. that will keep the same proportions (car and ECU won't know the difference between stock/aftermarket)

i'd go with 215/40/17 to avoid curb damage and get some wider tires.

215/45/17 is the really sporty look. problem is, the proportion ratios will be messy and they BARELY fit our wheel well.

Yeah... as HKC said, it was just a photochop I did to see how the wheels would look... I will be going for 17s with 205/40-R17 rubber & not, as the chop might suggest, 19s with 30 aspect ratio tyres! wink1.gif
