You'd actually need 23" to maintain the rolling diameter...... :wink:

and you sir, win the internet today :BROADY:

as an aside, I am running Droo's 15's on the SE, and Droo is running my 17's on his NA8.
Immediate impression, even though the tyre calculator states that the 15 combo should be 9.2mm lower, it is actually more (maybe as it's on a 15x8 rim so has stretch?).
Anyway, the car is impressively low now :NB8B:

Biggest, noticeable difference?
Bumps are slightly less harsh and the car looks sh!t.

Saw a few of these yesterday running 18s with 60 profile tyres - try that on an NA!

- because someone needs to slap some sense into you (unless you're going to a photoshoot or want that "hardparker" look).

My na6 came with 6 spoke 17 inch chrome advanti racing wheels with 205/40/17. All yours for $200.
Personally I prefer my new 15s for comfort.
