Not to be rude but lets think longer then a few months here.
Lets compare tire prices and how about the nice bearing wear becuase of the big fat rims.
195-65-15" Silverstone
R495.00
R1000 for 4
VS
215-45-17" Silverstone
R750.00
3000 for 4
like I said budget ....

LOL!!!
i have paid for a single tire since i bought my 17's!!!
so thats:
205/40/17 - R0.00
215/45/17 - R0.00
225/45/17 - R0.00
235/40/17 - R0.00
245/40/17 - R0.00
but then again - they dont last as long as new tires!

welcome to the forum by the way mr pinkfluffybunny...
and 18" tyre price is still expensive - R4k will not even get you cheap tyres.
Car's looking good though - like the colour, but yes save for the wheels and the drop...
are those the xtrail indicators or others?
