I need your opinions....
I currently have 16" Avanti Mags and dunlop SP tyres, and I'm interested in upgrading to directional sport tyres... The only issue i have, is that the for the tyres i want (Sport, lower noise, etc) Are very expensive.. Plus im not really that keen on the mag wheels that i have currently. I've been told that upgrading to 17'' mags that i'd be better off, as i can style my car, tyres are more readily available and are cheaper. So, here is what i'd like to ask... What do you think would suit my car better? http://www.hyperdrive.co.nz/product/wheel-...o/303765/detail http://www.hyperdrive.co.nz/product/wheel-...o/166938/detail Both are the same price, and include tyres.

It just doesn't look right, I like being able to see tire. Not to mention ride comfort, and the danger of potholes. Like the new Camaro, Challenger, Mustang etc... that come with 20's from the factory, I'd have to downsize.
