Hi geezer have you done your vento front end yet? :) Porsche wheels need adapters which cost anything from ?125 up.The wheels themselves thats another story! mate of mine's just picked up some design 90's unpolished without tyres for ?150 which is cheap! Polishing thems a doddle BUT tyres 16's cost more than 17's for some strange reason! ???

You wont need arch mods unless you still have plastic arches on cos they can be up to 8 inch wide and coilovers are a must to get that look your after 8)

Final warning if you see a set for sale without centre caps ie Porsche logo they better be cheap cos centres are not!!

Good luck with your quest! Will look the dogs when ontho!!!! 8)
