anything smaller than 18 on an AU look terrible!
17's make the car look very try hard-ish... but that is just MY OPINION. |

I think a stock AU looks crap with any 17" rim.. Wheras a XR or Fairmont GHIA with the body kit look alright with the AU1 AU2 Tickford 17's IMO. When i upgrade to 18's I'll be looking for some Rebel / or Pursuit Rims, just love the Tickford Centres too much.
