Rota GRA's are the way to go buddy

inovit are cheap,and for a reason.one of our local members had a set of the inovits and the paint blistered and peeled within a month

im on my second set of rota GRA's and there quality

speak to tsl for a full set of four with yoko or toyo tyres for just over £700 in 18" variant

Deffinintely 18's and the car sits alot lower than standard which enhances the look and size of the alloys.
