Well I have thought of it as well so would be interested in what anyone has to say.

I remember seeing a Tiger on a track day at Brands a few years ago that definitely had 17 inch rims so it has been done.

Does anyone know if Daytona rims will fit straight on ?

The guy you want to speak to is Winger. IIRC, he has a very nice set of 17" Dymags on his Tiger which look very sweet indeed.

Thanks a lot, I will take a look.

I was originally convinced that I needed 17inch wheels but having got used to the way it handles I am now not quite so sure.

17 inch hoops would give a much better tyre choice though.
