im in canberra and the law is that you are allowed to go 2 inches greater than what your car came out with factory (or you can get defected). meh, not gonna stop me putting 18's or 19's on.

i still say 17's slightly less chance of chipping or scratchingyour rims if you decide to pull a quick one without chucking on some "please thrash me" wheels

it has nothing to do with the insurance side of things. Legally cars released here must comply (as with everything) with ADR's. Don't ask me which section, paragraph, line etc but any car can have rims 2" greater diamater than what the vehicle was released as stock. So if it came of the factory floor with 15's.... you can only go to 17's. To go the next step, you must have an engineers certificate in the vehicle @ all times as to avoid defects from the cops. Just thought I'd clear it up if no one else said it.
