Hey.. any1 got pics of their Punto MK2 5 Door car with 17" alloys. Just want to see how it looks. Thanks.

Get some 15s instead if you value the performance of your car.

I dont know wether the 17s would rub or not, and if they would really kill the cars performance. Confused wether to get 16s or 17s. 15s are to small.

If your not willing to go for 15s then go for 16s with low pros, that way you dont have to worry about rubbing or sacrificing (sp) the performance

car would slow down alot, with it being 1.2 youll get sluggish response. id go 15's to be honest

15s are too tiny.. i might start checking 16s, then maybe lower the car after that

If you really want 17s then get a brand like compomotive, ats, etc. so that they weigh next to nowt.

Normal alloy wheels arent light.

 

[sunny2539]

so 16s are stil heavy?

 

[chrisunoman]

Heavier than 15s but not as heavy as 17s.

If you get alloy wheels like compomotive, ats, speedline, etc. then your performance wont be affected by the bigger alloys.

the performance is affected more by the rolling diameter of the wheel than the weight...

Erm... nope.
