Alloys - dont know what to do...

[jrmanese1]

Ive recently bought a seat ibiza mk4 1.2.. my first step is gettin decent alloys, cant decide whether to get 16's or 17's and if lowering the car would be necessary??


any help?????

my old car on 17"s

think if i was to do it again on those wheels it would have been lowerd

wheels

have 17's on mine think it looks ok but mines a five door and most of the time have a good few passengers husband has 16's on his same car looks better though depends on what u think would prob look better lowered on some coilovers

I love the look of the 17 " on my Fr, somehow make the car seem smaller and squat. if that makes any sense

I think i will go for 16's but there's not a lot of choice

Thanks for the replies, but im still stuck between getting 16 or 17, my main worry is the car looking to high if you know what i mean. Right now my car is sitting on HUBCAPS!!

Also would anyone know if i needed to get any spacers or what not for new alloys on the ibiza???

the FR & Cupra have slightly lower ride-height, so naturally yours will look better lowered...but as for wheel size, if you want more comfort, both ride and noise, then 16's. if you're looking for better looks, more responsive and don't mind the ride being a bit harsher with a tad more road noise then 17's

with regards to spacers people on here tend to go for 15-20mm on rears
