Nice one, cheer Skidpan.
I thought about going smaller when i bought the wheels + tyres for my Mazda but ended up sticking with 17s in the end... AWFUL timing for purchase, cos I'd almost saved enough money for a set, only for it to chuck it down with snow about a month before I was ready to press the 'buy' button.
Result = winter tyre shortage (this was in late 2010), so it turned into more about what was available tyre wise.
Slightly better prepared this time around though!
