Did I imagine it....???

Could've sworn there was a thread where I asked if anyone had done th esimple thing and just put 16" standard wheels all round......??? I think someone posted a pic of an "S" with it done....

Where's it gone?

Am I going mad ?

Mark - can't see your wheels!!!

Interesting re. the newer cars - didn't realise that! :thick:

Its the small front wheels that I reckon do the car no favours so it just seemed a potentially simple route to consider.

What size tyres do people use then??

Or you could fit a 205/50/16 on the front.
