Re: What size alloys and tyre?
exactly...for luxurys... so 14" wheels obivuosly aren't the best for performance...can upgrade or downgrade in size by an inch and still keep that performance
If your not early...Your late!

Well I've just put 15"s on mine and I don't think it's affected the performance that much. It feels ever ever ever so slightly slower when accelerating, but it doesn't seem to wobble as much when I go round a corner so I'm happy!
It has affected me speedo though, before when my speedo said 30mph, I was actually only doing 27mph. Now I'm doing 29mph so it's almost spot on lol!

Do you think I'd save fuel in that case, as I spend most of my driving doing 70mph on a motorway?
