yeah!! i agree with everybody here but 18's are more expensive. i'll say if your going to get a 2 piece get 18's cuz they're tend to be smaller.
17's will be fine. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

I'm all about 17" where I live but 18" will look all right yeah the cost and getting them stolen doesn't really appeal to me.

Sweet yeah it still is in my mind I should go 18' instead of the 17' such a choice, just curious if you are going to just use them as summer tires would you guys go with 18'? I still have a few weeks yet.

If youre getting 18's get 215/40/18 series tires or 215/45/18 but those will not last that lant cause of the wheel well..........
