What offset are they?

in my opinion, and this is of course my opinion...... getting rid of the 17's is a good move. one which ive just done myself although i went for 15' bbs's.

the difference it made to the car was epic and instantly noticable!!

handling is much improved, 17's are to big for these cars and i didnt get it till i changed over myself. 16' max.....

hope this helps

I've had 15's/16's/17's on my turds, all proper wheels with proper tyre sizes, and if I am honest, preferred it on 17's.. However not to be confused with cheap heavy 17's running shit undersized tyres.

I purchased my car with 17' alpina reps on 205-40-17's..... I just made do with them till a chance of a swap came up for 15' bbs's, I jumped on the opertunity and I can't fault it

Exactly.. Cheap, heavy and undersized tyres

heavy 17's with cheap tires on an e30 make a nissan micra seem like a plan

The alpina reps should have 215-40-17 tyres on them. The 205 tyre is not correct and gives a sort of strech look...

Like I said I didn't choose them lol...!

I did choose the 15' bbs though
