i quite like the look of them but im seriously considering jackin in my 17" pina reps for some 15"s just to improve ride and handling.

its not fair why do 17s look so good but ride so bad :cry: :cry: :cry:

So im not the only 1 - this is a time old argument! what happens with your ride mate and what have you tried to fix it? I get serious vibrations.... first at 50 the at 82.... cant stand it but im hoping i can get it better if not solve it altogether... i hear 18s give no probs? :?

sorted the vibrations by replacing as many bushes as i could and getting a decent set of spigot rings for the allys.
i love the amout of grip on corners but anything other than a perfectly flat road and it judders all over the shop, bitch over speedbumps too.

i want to try some 15s first and there gonna have to be pretty wide or dished to oust the 17s.

oh decisions decisions, well and money. :mad:

I think these wheels suit grey or similar metallics, they look a bit naff on primary coloured e30s in my op. So yea a 2 door Dolphin grey theyd be nice on.
