Alright then folks, ive got standard 195/50 R15 wheels on my vts but i'm sick of them, so i've just tried on one of my mates wheels which was 215/40 R17 and it didn't fit because of the fuel pump, well i think thats what it is,at the drivers side back wheel.It was quite a bit out aswell! Can any one help me? would a 195/40 R16 be any good since 17's won't fit!
And those of you who have 17's on, how did you get them to fit! cheers from Owen

go lightweight 16's ( TD pro-race, Oz, speedlines) and you'll hardly notice the difference.

The vts wheels are uber heavy though, my 16" superlegs are lighter than the standard vtr & vts wheels.
