I need 17s to fit the front brakes and there aren't really any that I like that much apart from mine (but they are the wrong offset)
If I had standard brakes, I would just keep these on it.
No offense to anyone but I never really liked the imolas, they just look a bit too small with the large wings/arches.
But each to their own, it would be boring if we all liked the same

Simonwedge , those wheels look great , what sizes did you use front and back
Other than changing from 15/16 inch to 16/17 inch I've deliberately kept the other dimensions similar to the Estorils. This has meant that they fit without any clearance/rubbing and no need for spacers. Actual sizes are:Front - 16 x 7.5 ET25 with 205/50 16 (car is non-PAS)
Rear - 17 x 8.5 ET35 with 235/45 17
Simonwedge thanks for the information
I thought the rears looked a bit wider looks very good on a 8.5j and I take it you have not had any rubbing on the rear wheel arch
on a et35 how far do your wheels stick out ? im guessing they are nearly flush with the outside of your wheel arch
are you using a 40 or 45 profile on your 17" rears
