40's and you;ll feel every stone in the road.

Go 16's with 45's.

IMO of course.

i was thinking either 17s with 40 tyres or 16 inch with 45's.

Wouldn't go 17's on a fester though. 16's at the most.

yes bigger alloys should fill the gap.

depends on wheel and tyre choice to be honest.

be honest i dont know wether it is 60 mm i ordered them from motorworld so it should be, i fitted them last weekend, so it prob has gone down, there isnt a massive gap, so would bigger alloys fill the gap?

ive gone 60mm on 15's and its in the archs? are you sure its 60mm.when did you lower it? have you let it settle?

I have lowered my car 60 mm havent got any pics to post sory, but iv got a gap between my wheel and arch, im buying some new alloys, if i got 16 inch alloys or 17 inch would the alloys fill the arch, or would the gap stil be there and just be higher, dont really know these things.

thanks alot:)
