Lower, alloys, colour code. Probably look smart just from that.

The usual cheap and nasty things? Why not have a change?

with the alloys, i always like to keep it in the family (see what i did there ;)) by getting peugeot alloys from a better model i.e the GTI ones
same when i had my zetec S and my ZR.
how much would a set of nice GTI alloys set me back and what size are they, 16"?

Nimrods. They won't cost much. Value has gone down recently.

16" for nimrods (gti 138) 17" for vortex's (180)
Not sure on the going rate anymore but used to be about £150-ish for nimrods, £300 ish for Vortex's. All depends on tyres and general condition.
