Hi mate. Do a search and you will see plenty of threads with regards to tuning. Some useful tips in the "Projects Forum" as well. Guess it all depends on your budget and how far you want to take the car.............

Welcome by the way

On 17's you can go for either 205/45/17 tyres or 215/40/17.
Wheels need to be 48-52mm off set if your buying any, id also look at the extra cost on your insurance first as you may get a shock
