Default Advice on wheels options

Tried out a set of 17” OEM wheels and didn’t make any difference on ride over 18” So I think I will stick to 18”.

Have just under £800 set aside for a set of wheels now

Any advice welcome on what would be a good option to fit over Brembos, no arch modification or spacers but fills the arches as much as possible.

Must be 5x100, happy with most colours, don’t need to be super light or anything as I’m not a track goer, used/new/oem/aftermarket I’m not bothered but not ideally looking for anything needing a refurb, tyres would be a bonus but not essential.

Any advice welcome cheers.

Thank you - looking to find out if they will fit over STI Brembos.

They’re pretty big so might have clearance issues.

Cheers @Anger - I think 17s might have clearance issues but the site seems to think they will fit.
Just comparing what I can get 17/18 new
