Handling with smaller wheels

[Krishen]

Was just wondering if having smaller wheels will make a difference to the handling and performance to my cupra?
I currently have black 17'' oz super turismos but thinking of sticking my white Seat 16'' multispokes back on.
What do you guys think?

smaller & wider the better

15x7's would be great

Mmm. Well for the moment it owuld be 16'' alloys as i already own them. Cant afford new alloys at teh moment, being an unemployed student lol.

i did and went back to std 16"

rides loads better and handles loads better - only really notice on the limit

ive got 15s and they do handle very nicely i must say, especially on these shite, windy island roads!

I have to agree, got a set of 15's on mine with the car lowered 60/40 and it handles pretty well. Would be better if i had better tyres on tho! I only have the budget ones on that came with the alloys on and there is still a fair bit of tread left but they have lost some of there bite.
