Keeping my eyes out for some 17x8 Azev A's, probably with a 205/45 or something on them.
I think it was the 60 profile that make the 15's look a bit pants. IMO.

If you have 15's with a 50 profile instead, they look a million times better.

these are 205/50/15 on a set of speedlines (that came off a type 89) & the car is lowered.
