YES.. too small.. sorry.
Also they are CK not CH.
-
Look fine to me! :happy2:
Cars can often drive better with slightly smaller wheels. That extra sidewall will suit our roads better and you've lowered the un-sprung weight which is good.
-
Thanks for clarifying they are CK, just assumed they were CH.........
im currently on 17" monza's so its not like im changing the tyre or wheel spec, just the appearance.
-
Just needs lowering and it will look great.

Personally i think the Ch work best as 18 or 19.
For 17 id stick with the Monza.

May just sell these on then.
The car is already lowered 30mm on H&R's, dont really want to go lower. I have a mk2 golf for that....

Car looks great on the 19"s :happy2:
-
19"s :drool:
Don't think the 17s look bad and probably a little less bumpy.
-
Too small when you compare them with what 18'' and 19'' look like.
17'' is a good size for a daily driver, especially if you have to go through bad roads, but the bigger sizes are better aesthetically.
If you really have to have 17''s, keep them. :happy2:

Thanks for the replies....
Its not that I have to keep them, they were a good price and i initially planned to stick them on my wifes touran anyway.
