In the market for new shoes "opinions welcome"

[AnthemCTR]

Was wondering what you think the best wheel size for the ek9 type r is. I have 17x7 but am thinking about going to a 16x7. What size shoes do you guys currently have and why?

15's, they look the best, they handle the best, and they are cheapest for both rims and tyres.

No brainer imo

17's look far to big! 15s would be my choice too..

depends on the wheel IMO. 16's for looks 15's for go, plus they are about half the price in tires compared to a good 16" variant.

edit: for a reference these are 16" TE37's with the car on spoon springs.

15"s deffo in 6.5j or 7j thier going to be lighter, cheaper, cheaper tyres, more choice in tyres

16's

Best compromise
