17s Or 18s

[blutto]

OK, new set of alloys might be on the way (just got to convince the wife) but 17''or 18''.

Would like the latter but if I lower as well don't want to lose what teeth I'v got left

HI YA M8,

i have lowered my t sport with gmax lowering springs (45mm front 30mm rear) and suprisingly the ride still sayed comfortable and didnt shake my filings out but it properly sorted out the handling (no more wollowing!!!) i have recently just but some 18" muiltspoke alloys on the car i was going to go for 17"s but glad i didnt as there wouldnt be any diferance in ride between the both you may aswell go for 18" cos there a simular price!! i got a set of 18" multispoke split rims with new tyres (215/35/18) for £550!!!!!!! go to rochford tyres .com and have a look, the ride has got even firmer but still not bad but well worth it, wish i could post up some pics. go for pal. nathan.

I lowered mine on spax 40mm all round then had the same problem, do you go for 17" OR 18", I chose the safe option and went for 17". BIG MISTAKE, 18" will fit no problem.

Bloody hell this website is good, I read a review on a new type R today and they mentioned it had 18" alloy wheels and I was wondering about getting some 18" rather than 17" you lot can read my mind....

Has anybody lowered a Facelift T Sport if so by how much and where did you get the springs...

Cheers
