Deep dish - spokes set well into the wheel. Popular on BMW 5 / 7 series.

I'll chime in!

with DBM, StevenM, Craig and Chris Type R

and that is the voice of experience.
2 sets of 18" after markets, 1 set of 17" after market, stock 16" and stock 17" in 2 years on two S's I've spent faaar toooo much

18" all the way.

16"s are too small, changed to 17"s on the 04+ but 04+ are for gay's and girl's, so 17"s must be gay.

Like the reasoned logic there ade

I saw a guy had 18's on the back and 17's on the front recently. It looked weird, the front wheels looked very small and the wheel arch gap was huge, a few other people agreed with me too . You want 18's all round. Don't listen to any of this about 17's making your car go faster. If they do it's minimal and you would have to be a competent driver to notice it. Put it this way if you get 17's and I get Jenson Button to drive mine with 18's , I know who my money would be on

My 18" Oz Superlegerra's have not rubbed at all in all the miles I have done (inlcuding Arran )

Except when going REALLY mental, like the car is bouncing down on to the ground with massive force, even then I think it is the plastic trims rubbing the road rather than the tyres rubbing on the arches.

I take it that you consider yourself incompetent then Jamie?

These 18" boys represent the MENSA element of the s2000 owners

JamieS2K

Course not , I don't think there's much difference in all of us to tell the truth. Spose these boys that have been on driving days consider themselves more competent
