19" will stiffen it up more than enough. Get some MV6 or stiffer suspension too.

I have 19" wheels and full MV6 suspension, if you want to "try before you buy" pop to Bedford (I'm about most weekends) and have a drive to see what you think.

Here's what the 19" snowflakes look like.

I have 19inch wheels with 35 profile tyres. Rides ok on a smooth road, but any speed humps or pot holes and it can be a pain in the arse literally!!!!!

Gosh, if I got hold of them alloys (hans-v6's pics) ... I would be heading straight to the scrap yard with them to weigh them in!

How can you like them?  :o

Each to their own and all I guess!  ;D But I would rather have steelys back on if I was given the choice!  ;)

Your right it is each to their own mate and i think these are total trick....So different from the norm and thats what i like. We don't get that many good looking rims in the u.k and if you do see some that are total different it uselly means they cost your arm,leg.
