From this: these are 15"


To: would be in 16"


Only consideration will be the extra rolling radius and the handling/acceleration effect

credit to Whittie for the shop as I was to lazy to do it.

Really am undecided would like to keep the 15" rims but there are some circumstances surronding my brakes where it may be eassier to keep them and just get bigger wheels, but if i do then thats £600 out of my management fund
