Well, i am waiting for the usual cliosport lot to rip the pish out of me for taking my 17s off, but i thought you guys in here may appreciate it a little more, as most of you will probably be running on 15s................
The car is awesome now, no 205/40 elastic bands. It drives better, steers sharper, feels better, goes better.....and i think......LOOKS better! 195/50 Eagle F1's............opinions welcome guys! p.s. the last pic is Northys photography skills :wink:

Looks good. Need to put the centre caps on or paint the wheel nuts though.

Looks good. Love black cars with black rimmage. Not 100% on the side skirts although they aren't completely OTT.

centre caps are pending :) the skirts were on the car when i got it......thay aint too bad, i still like them, prefer the 172 subtle ones, but, i don't think these will be coming off in a hurry lol :)

i do like the look of those 15's and the tyres set it off nicely due to the cool tread paturn

Nice. That looks luuuuurvely. :D

I had 17s on my 205 at one point. Put my 15s back, and the handling was amazing. Big wheels ruin a car :roll:
