    Morning, I’ve been doing some research into aftermarket wheels.

    I have came to the conclusion that 16s are the best bet for ride quality and handling.

    Does anyone have any advice.

    Attached is an image of the wheels I’m looking at. Yeah or Neigh?

    SR are a stunning wheel imo. I would say you need 17s on the f56. I think 16s would look really small even 17inch tds look a little small on the f56

    Agreed that 16” wheels would look lost on the F56. 17” is a good compromise
    You only need two tools in life WD40 and Duct Tape. If it doesn't move and should use WD40 and if it moves and shouldn't use Duct Tape.

    New wheels came, but only 3 out of 4 arrived! After a 500mile round trip today I got my cash back, don’t ever order from a specific online wheel shop!
