i do however need some wheel advice as i'm not 100% these wheels will work

the wheels set me back £220, new in the box! they are 16" 8" wide offset is ET20, multifit 4x100 and 4x114 (i think).

I know the rears will probably need spacers to get the stance right, i'm worried that the offset may cause problems at the front, will they stick out further than the kit? if they need to be spaced to clear the suspension how much?

going to test fit a wheel (without tyre) this morning to try and establish if they'll be ok

has any one used this wheel size? if so what tyres to put on them?

ive seen mx5's with 16's running low profile tyres, i want a bigger tyre wall and will happilly suffer the speedo inaccuracy that may bring but i don't want to ruin the cars handling, which the 16's may have already compromised.

so many questions!
