So.. i currently have a lovely moonstone 306, which is badly in need of some new wheels...
i should say the wheels will be black.. or very very dark anthracite, along with certian other little additions to the vehicle to accentuate the moonstone colour. (thats a big word, so for you dum-dum it means "make look shineyer")
now.. i was thinking of some new wheels, as there are a few i like (most of them are OEM pug wheels so are ten a penny on ebay cause chavs are taking htem off their decent cars and chavving them u p with wolfrace specials from halfrauds)
I was looking to keep the cyclones, i think they suit the car nicely.. but then also the 206GTi wheels (multispoke ones) would also look nice, as would a set of the 180's wheels, but i dont want to go for anything over 16inches really as thats too large..
So... help me decide...

was looking for 15 or 16s, (maximum would be 16s) as i dont want to screw the Rolling radius up and handling with it

I run 17s with 40 profile tyres and cant see any difference with acceleration yet cornering with 205s on seems more surefooted.
Plus allows for big brakes

Another vote for Ariannes here, but only because i have a set to go on the estate when the tyres on my rubbish 17's have worn out (which is looking like soon!).
EDIT: If you fancy some really nice 17's, not at all bent or buckled, mine will be free fairly soon by the looks of it!

I reckon a set of 16" steels like the ones I'm selling, proper stealthy and direct fit OEM
15's are too small really anyway.

I had Ariannes on mine. But i wish i had stuck to the Clones. The arrianes will tramline. If you want good looks and dont do long journeys then go bigger and wider. Else clean up the clones and keep them
Here is mine on Arrianes
