Cheers for that! Whilst I'm here, do you know a nice tyre size for the original 16" alloys? Can't remember off hand what size they are at the moment but are too chunky with it being lowered a bit.

Standard tyre size should be 205/50/16, I dont really know If would go to 45s as it will knock out the speedo reading and also affect ride quality
