Hi Ben, 15 or 16 inch wheels(17" wheels on a TA22 look odd) 6.5 inches max at the front, otherwise you start to run into tooo many problems. I tried 7" on the front of a TA22, could not get fulll lock on the steering!
Rears about 8 inches wide, but be very wary of tyre choice, and wheel offset.
That being said, I would probably go 6.5" all round, or maybe 6.5" front, and 7.0" rear.
If you go too wide, these cars can become a real bitch to drive in the wet.
Tyre choice, is paramount, as is a properly sorted suspension.
"Bling" does not contribute anything to handling, braking and safety.
regards Chuck.
