After I had the Xpower remap thingey, it felt much the same!
(although, I'm sure if it was downgraded, I'd notice that!)

Are these the set I had off you?
I had 15" something or others on before, and honestly, can't feel any difference in ride or handling!
The Starspokes do look much better though!

Main thing to watch out for Nick, is getting the right aspect ratio tyres so your rolling radius stays the same.

The price difference is astonishing indeed. I admit that this has been one reason putting me off. I was looking for 16" as compromise between look and comfort, but the tires are twice as expensive.

£20k? Jake?!? That is a stupid price to pay for wheels ...
If I had that much money to spend on wheels I'd be on Vortexs!
