I'm looking at different wheels ATM as I'm really not keen on the standard 17's. I know a lot of Nissan's will fit as all pcd/bore etc are the same but ET's differ.
I prefer the standard silver painted look. I do LOVE the dark bold version wheels but are way above for cost and only 6.5 wide. Juke's are ten a penny out there so may go for 7x17's and look at fitting 225/45 on them with Eibach lowering springs and keep what I've got for winters.
Any pics and references would be greatly appreciated folks.

I changed the wheels on my 1.2 Tekna from the original 215/45/18 J7 with ET47 to 215/55/17 J6.5 with ET4.5 , the reason being I like a 'softer' ride and after the swop there's a noticeable difference as they do give a smoother ride. The speedo is approx 1 mph slower reading now with the tyre/wheel swop.
I kept the original wheels and tyres as they are nearly brand new and I didn't really know if the ride would be changed for the better !!
I hope this helps you, all the best from Neale.

I've bought a set of juke 6 spoke D0300BA61A off ebay instead.
Mrs preferred these to the multi spoke too (didn't think she would) so will eventually use them for summers with wider rubber. Winters will be shod with M&S next year. Think I'll paint the old alloys in the summer.
