18 inch or 19 inch. Get some wheels with staggered fitment so you get a nice stance. Or get Japan Racing wheels I think they're like 9.5j all the way round? They look crazy.

Uk cars came with the larger 4 pot fronts and 2 pot rears, but they aren't UK brakes :thumbs:

 

Also stay well away from 19's unless you want to ruin the handling of the car. 17 front and rear would be the best option and the smallest size you could go with the larger OEM brakes. If you want something different 18 front and 17 rear would be a good choice or like most 18 front and 18 rear.

 

ET all depends on the wheel, the search function is your friend is this instance as it has been covered many times before :)

Couple of ways first is by uploading directly to the forum which can be done by creating a post as you have done and clicking the insert image button above where you type your message or alternatively you can create a photo bucket account and copy the img tag from the photo and paste it into a post. And no I won't be unfortunately my job means I work every weekend so rarely get to go to meets anymore. My car probably doesn't remember what Tarmac looks like :(
