Most people think 18's look better but 17's with a decent sidewall will ride better.
QUOTE(lagos @ Jul 10, 2006 - 1:55 PM) [snapback]454118[/snapback]i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this.
even though the smaller the wheels the more HP is tranferred, the biggest wheel you should use(to fit bigger brakes) for running around hard is 17. . . not sure where the knowledge comes from, but i have heard it many times.
i have 18s, but im going for more show then go. if u have an everyday driver, 17s with a 40-45 sidewall would work great. since i have 18's i can feel everyhting on the road.
