Rims?

I want to put new wheels on my 06 jcw convertible. I have 17in wheels now and would like the new wheels to be 17in also. Looking also to cut some weight with new wheels. Need ideas and help please

Here's a nice start: https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...heels-359.html

Loads of pictures of rims and tires, of dropped cars and the likes

many of the OZ and Konig wheels are a popular (usually) more lightweight choice.

If you have runflats, going non-runflat will earn you some pounds as well

Agreed it personal taste. Try Tirerack they are always a good resource.
