Pro- Still mini, look good, Con - Weighty, needs two tyres

Option 2
Buy set of Superleggeras 17" with goodyear f1 tyres £530ish
Pro - light, good tyres, Con - more expensive, could affect insurance, wrong aspect tyre 205/40/17.

Option 3 - Leave it as it is.

Anyone any opinions/advice/experiences of changing there wheels from what ive got to any of the above etc...


I have a set of silver 5 spokes with fantastic tread on the tyres,two of the wheels are slightly scratched,for £300 if that helps
