You may not like it.
As much as I like the look of 17's in the back of my mind I'm always aware that they're no good for winter, and as I don't have a bodykitted MK2 I don't feel tied down to having 17's.
I missed out on a couple of Grids on Ebay over the past few months but I saw these instead.





Now I'll admit, I wasn't feeling it when I fitted them, but I thought I'll give it a try.
General driving is now awesome, I now have a better turning circle and acceleration has improved.

All opinions welcome.

They are okay, bigger diameter would probably look better against the wheel arch, as long as you are happy then all's good.

Not for me to be honest - and fail to see that they would improve acceleration and your turning circle in such a way that you'd notice .....
