Alloy wheel choice?!

Hi guys,

Looking at some 17's for my cupra tdi and then maybe a 35-40mm drop on coilovers..

been looking at the calibre vintage wheels as i love "that" look and theyre fairly cheap without tyres! But im also considering some 5 spoke rims, maybe ace 184's or some dotz maybe?

just wondering if anyone has seen the calibre alloys on a mk1 leon?

and im after any suggestions aswell!!

cheers tom.

prefer 18's better, after market 17's need a lower profile tyre and then look alittle small in my opinion, 18's fill the arches nice
