Having removed my 17's in preperation for a new one (thanks to railtrack!) and having the other 3 refurbed, I'm now running 15 inch BBS wheels and all I can say is WOW!! So much smoother, no more tramling and steering feels so much lighter. Apart from the fact that 15's look so small in the arches the ride is much better and overall ride of the car feels better.

So has anyone else downsized and found improvements?

I'm still gonna get the Azev's refurbed and wrapped in some sticky Yoko A520's for the summer, but was so shocked the difference that this has made. :D

yep, i felt difference too. 15's are so goog for ride quality, but 17's just look good. i think 16's would be best
