DEL VR6 0 Posted April 13, 2006 i have only ever had 15's or 16's. i went for the 16's on the strength of advice of people who's opinions on here i value and respect. I totally love the feel and ride they give. Have to say sometimes 17's look pretty awesome, but at the same time, 16's just look right. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_Monkey 0 Posted April 13, 2006 Well I've just made the switch from 17s to 16s and the car seems to handle better and grip has dramatically improved. Though it might have something to do with the 9"wide wheels on the back! :lol: Before: After: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
double-6s 0 Posted April 14, 2006 errrrrr..... how did grip improve by fitting smaller wheels mate? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

double-6s 0 Posted April 14, 2006 increased wheel width makes fek all difference. you need more rubber. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_Monkey 0 Posted April 14, 2006 Increased wheel width=increased tyre width=increased rubber. 17's were only 7j Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
double-6s 0 Posted April 14, 2006 so clearly the thing that has increased the grip would be the wider TYRES then? so what tyres were you running before? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_Monkey 0 Posted April 15, 2006 See what you mean. Well i was running yokos (sorry can't remember size), but now i've got the 16's on i'm running nankangs. (i know! but loss of job=schitty tyres!) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
selbekk 0 Posted April 15, 2006 what about running 9x16 both front and back? would that cause any negative effects? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
