The Stilo blades do need spaces, they're a smart design and suit the Coupe.

Aye I agree with Joe, those 17's Stilo blades suit the Coop very well indeed. Seen a pic' on here of a well sorted silver Coop with these rims sitting next to a Pagani I think. The Coop certainly didn't look out of place... love

They are nice wheels those. But I would avoid changing ET because of the effect that will have on scrub radius. You may well find that the steering becomes sensitive to bumps and grooves. It's horrible driving a car with the wrong scrub radius.

They will fit straight on a Coupe without Brembos. The offset difference is noticeable though, I would space them a little regardless.

Thanks for the input, I may just stay with the 16's, its just that competition tyre choice is a bit more difficult.

What competition are you using the car for? The new Toyo R888r is available in both 205/50 and 225/45 16 and apparently the Yokohama AO52 will be available in at least one of them soon. Those are both 1B tyre list, options for 1A are more limited certainly now that Yokohama AD08 is not available unless you are very very lucky.
