Ideally something 15" and 7" wide that doesn't need spacers and is light but strong. There are a few choices. Depends on your brakes mostly though.Tyres anything you fancy or can afford. Is your car standard? ________________________________________ Nothing to see here |

You need to think about what brakes you are going for before deciding on wheels. There is a lot of info about brake/wheel combos on here already.I'd look at Ash's 310 (Renaultsport Brembos) or 330 (406 V6 Brembos) kit. Not cheap but they work really well. You may need 16 or 17 inch wheels for those and also be careful with spoke clearance. Bit of a minefield tbh. ________________________________________ Nothing to see here |

If your considering upgrading the brakes i would go for a decent set of 16's. WIth lower profile tyres they come in at a similar rolling radius as 15's and the tyre prices are actually pretty good, especially when compared to the price of 17" tyres.________________________________________ Just Drive It |

i sold my 16's purely because of tyre prices  17 is cheaper. 18 tho is just obscene as i found out on the ST  |
