17" wheels
« on: 06 March 2010, 19:31 »
I've just put my 17 inch bk alloys on , and they look ...well....a little small .. I wasn't expecting a massive difference as they are only 17's after all , but they just look a bit wrong . I think it might be down to the tyres on them , they have 205 40 on , but they look a little stretched so i'm thinking a different size would help . Something like a 225 45 maybe would fill the arches a bit better .

Anyone else running 17's , what tyre size do you have on ?

205/40 is too small for a mk4.
