    I had em on my GT and the rubbed on the inner plastic arch..Alloys were 38ET plus packers on the front hubs which were about 3mm each. Outer arches was not an issue.

    I had 17s on my Sporting lowered 60mm. I would not recommend it. I think they look too big and it makes the ride very uncomfortable.

    16s would be a better option both for looks and ride.
    Punto Gt no more!

    17 inch with -60 / -40 no problem if you roll the rear arches and take of a little buit of the plastic from the bumpercorner

    In the front no problem ... my experience with the 17 inch fealess Wheels i had on both my previous 60SX and my GT
