Bought some new wheels for the pug. Got them very cheap from someone i know and thought id give them a try.
Although they look too small they are 16's bit i need some bigger tyres.

Funnily enough, I was thinking about spraying my spare Hoggars in Gold to go with my 'new; China blue car - it looked good on the Clio Williams... 8)

I think yours looks alright, but yes to bigger tyres when those wear down ( 205/55/16, common size tyre )
