I like the look! Kind of helps that 'front end looks too
-

I don't think so - it's standard "SMZ spec" tire/wheel size.

I am, sorry no pics though. (n/m)

How does 18 in rear, 17 in front compare in terms of ride
-
hoss
11:48:33 05/01/03
It's kind of the middle ground - you keep the cornering
-
YugoBernie (NoVA)
12:27:18 05/01/03
Nice. Thanks for the info. I'm definitely gonna consider it

18s look great, still enough tire. 17s look lame in my opin (n/m)

if 18" wheels are BAD, why are they stock on some cars? (n/m)
-
ScubaSteve
12:45:44 05/01/03
because not all cars use a 25" diameter tire (n/m)
-

exactly. (n/m)
