I am considering dropping down to 14 inch rims from 15s.

You'll need slightly smaller tyres.

you won't be able to run big brakes

I've got 14" campaigns on my 16v

apart from you can't have 280 brakes

and you may have a slight difference on the speedo if the rolling radius is different

sharpie. standard brakes but thanks for a sensible reply

breaker, compared sizes, less than 2mm and 0.35% so wont make much difference

why ya wanting to do this mate? Doesn't look as good or handle as well IMO

[JC]

cos i might have found some lush 14s 

[MarkS]

 tell me more!

[JC]

 

and handling wont be affected that much, I am accustomed to CEAT tyres now
