I'm looking at getting some new wheels and not sure which size I want to get. 16" are cheaper but I don't know if 17" would look better. Also which ones fit better?

I still stick to my theory of 18's for the 6, The arches are just too big

To a degree I have to admit that although on my White one that I had it was a better ride on the 18's than the 16s although if you've got the right tyre profile etc then yeah 16's would suit fine |
