If I was to put 17 inch mags on my gem is there any way I could get my car insured properly?

if you want to cover them, you can expect higher premiums, 17s (to my knowledge) are illegal...

if a car was fully certified, engineered (expect to pay up big) then you will be charged higher premiums for what you are insuring, as im led to believe from various companies

Mate I have 17's on mine and no probs with insurance
you just have to go to someone like shannons and get
it insured as a modified vehicle but they will require
a 3 point immobiliser and alarm system once it is insured
as a modified car you can do anything to it as long as you
let them know

Hope this helps

cheers Macca
