Message	given a choice I would have run 17s because they are lighter. The 18s have a stiffer sidewall so better turn in response but I think the lower inertia 17s will net overall faster laps. Currently running 285 fronts and 315 rear Hoosier R6, never ran the Hoosiers on the 17s so hard to compare.
