please dont punch me too hard for asking the '17" wheels' question...

right...fitting 17s to a mk2 1.2

rolled arches
205/40 tyres
7" wide wheels

would there be any inner arch mods needed, and could i drop it 25mm (just to get rid of the arch/wheel caps) without having to hack away at the front wings

cheers

Easy Cambridge, hes only asking a question. Just make sure you get as near to the correct offset as you can. I know thats sounds obvious, but it can be easily forgotten when your in the showroom :) I've got 1's on mine and I've had to cut and roll the arch to fit them.
