I need your opinions....
I currently have 16" Avanti Mags and dunlop SP tyres, and I'm interested in upgrading to directional sport tyres... The only issue i have, is that the for the tyres i want (Sport, lower noise, etc) Are very expensive.. Plus im not really that keen on the mag wheels that i have currently. I've been told that upgrading to 17'' mags that i'd be better off, as i can style my car, tyres are more readily available and are cheaper. So, here is what i'd like to ask... What do you think would suit my car better? http://www.hyperdrive.co.nz/product/wheel-...o/303765/detail http://www.hyperdrive.co.nz/product/wheel-...o/166938/detail Both are the same price, and include tyres.

I know everything about style. If you want to look like:
 I suppose that's your prerogative. It's an economy car, big rims are daft on it. The engineers chose the sizes they did for a reason, and it's generally accepted you don't oversize by more than 2 inches. If you want to make your economy car slower and less economic then by all means throw on your bling. -------------------- 2001 Miata LS 5-speed
