[Mr Diet]

With regards to upgrading wheels, I was advised against fitting 19" or 20" as it would seriously affect the handling. Has anyone any experience of this ?

Imo 19" is fine, but 20" are too "big" and "heavy", if you consider "best" /good handling etc...

Thanks for that Bainie.
Did you take that photo and if so can you remember the name of the dealership ?

I was quoted £525 delivered without tyres from Rochford for the Equinox, but found out that someone I know had the chrome rim come off one when he hit a pothole, so not so sure about them ?? He reckoned the alloy would have been whacked anyway even if it didn`t have the rim in it ..

Here are mine, I originally wanted 18" BBS anthracite, but by the time I'd saved up for them you could only get anthracite in 19" which I didn't fancy.
