I have a VL Calais which has Simmons 16" OM's. I am getting a bit sick of them and what to upgrade to maybe FR17 or some other brand. What do people suggest and what is required as far as going to 17" ie off sets etc? Has anyone purchased these of late and what did they pay? Thanx guys and girls for your help....

I guess the guards would need to be rolled to make them fit?

FRs are choise wheel, but dont put 40 45 profile tyres on them because you end up bend the rims or causing flat spots. The guards dont have to rolled just get the right offset.......
