if you lower the car then you will probably need a widearch kit mate. expect a very big bill for the job. i wouldnt bother with 18`s as they are far too big. i think 16`s are the biggest size you should go for ;)

Honestly wouldnt bother with 18's tbh...
i had 17s on my Saxo and they did my head in.. couldnt full lock, couldnt have more than one passenger and tyres were expensive as funk!
Id stick with 15's or 16's

i wouldn't bother doing that myself......no offence but it would look abit daft. probably loads of work involved too.
thats just my opinion though, don't think i'd go any bigger than 16" on a saxo.

i don`t think 18" rims would be good on a saxo. ive got 17" and i had to do loads of arch work. i think 18" would be major.

Will have to look into getting your arch's rolled and things... will fit but will take alot of work!

you should go for 17" rims, iv got 17's on my car and they rub on full lock even when iv hammerd in the rubbing areas, also its annoying as fuck when you go over a bad bump with a bit off weight in the back. the noise it makes gives me nightmares!!!

its really not a good idea to fit 18s mate, major archwork will be needed, R-Tech specialise in fitting 18s to saxos and not sure how much it costs
just go for 16s or 17s if your want them for looks, although archwork will still be needed with 17s it wont be as much as if it was for 18s
