If you put 16s or 17s on and don't lower it, it will look like a 4x4.

Firstly, unless you want to look like a cock, you MUST lower your car a minimum of 40mm.

You can get 16's on if you de-bolt the rear arches (see Tutorials & FAQ). You should probably be able to get the 17's with de-bolted arches too...
