i'm begging for help

[string]

some people are sayin 16s with 40 drop will not rub?

others are sayin they will.

i wanna know if theres much difference between 15s and 16s look wise an also performance wise.

many thanks string

I'd just go for 15s mate, peace of mind and they'll definitely look good enough.

Go with 15's. 16's are a bit too big in my opinion and may lower the handling capabilities. 15's are optimum i'm sure many of the guys and girls in the club will agree. Faster acceleration, cheaper tyres etc.

Go for 15's you know ya wanna!

the off set of the alloys is one of the most important things, has no one thought about that???

aye 16's in my eyes slightly too big looking for the car. i went for 15's with wide tyres awesome grip likes! and no rubbing, but if u are wanting 16's i am sure they will grip ememse aswell and if it does rub then just get the arche's rolled cost's about £10 per arch. had it done on my old corsa works a treat!....i have the 15's on with a 65mm drop no rubbing lol......and it's slammed...

I've had 14" 15" And 16"s on my GT when i had it. As long as the offset is ET35-38 they should be fine.

The only time my 16"s rubbed was giving it some stick in the twisties it would catch ever so slightlyon the plastic inner arch. Performance wise theres very little difference unless you have stupidly heavy 16"s or very light 15"s. Mine was feckin low too!

15's - cheaper tyres

[Sparky]

Its all to do with the correct offset

Just get 15s to save arguments

[Idrees]

ET38 offset on 15s should never rub mate.

well the only time mine have rubbed (15s, with 50 tyres and -40 drop) was wen i had a car load and was bouncin along the motoway. not serious, as this even happend wen it wasnt lowered.

i say 15s mate.
