acf8181 0 Posted January 4, 2004 Report Share Posted January 4, 2004 forget all the plans...15"s = best handling16"s = good compromise of looks/handling,17"s and above = look good, but crap handling.a vr6 is a performance car so whats the point in destroying it? Link to post Share on other sites

VR6Steve 0 Posted January 4, 2004 Report Share Posted January 4, 2004 I'd agree 16's are as good compromise. !7's at a push. My other half's VR has 17's and she finds them a little harsh in the comfort stakes. Link to post Share on other sites

speedo 0 Posted January 11, 2004 Report Share Posted January 11, 2004 I am running standard 15"`s at the moment (winter wheels!), and she does drive a lot faster, but normaly run 17 "BBS during rest of the year. The handling does suffer a little, but i don`t throw it around like my mk2, and it looks the nuts... Link to post Share on other sites
