Ok so im in the market for a set of rims/tires to suit my sig, I think a set of black 19's or 20's.

My other problem is my driveway is very steep and just scrapes now.would the larger rims fill the guards enough as I dont think ill be able to lower the car

Also pro's and con's in larger wheels.

Can anybody photoshop on here ?

Cheers in advance........

pro's of larger wheels = look good and more width of rubber on the road

cons = more $$$ for tyres and less sidewall

increase tyre diameter and not lowering the car = less scrapage

I would still lower but the bigger diameter allows you to not have to worry about scraping as much. I think I got like 20-30mm extra rolling diameter from 19's to 20's, so lifted the car about 10-15mm off the ground and shoved 10-15mm more tyre under the guards,

Expect to lift the car even more if starting from stock 17's.

As for rim choice theres a million options, choosing wheels with the right fitment is often the hard part

If you are going to go the icon zest...

Contact Jarrard at www.thewheeldeal.com.au and tell him Worm sent you... He will look after you on a price.

They are great wheels and fit over Brembos...
