An inch is a pretty big difference.

Yeah I mean it seems like everyone has 17" wheels, but my factory wheels are 17inches and it just seems like 18 would look better.

I tried to use that f**cking search on this site and it won't find topics or subjects that I KNOW you guys have talked about before [sm=headbang.gif] .

That is the reason I am posting this cause I can find a thread for it. I know it should have been a thread where everyone posted wheel pictures.

Nice before and after, that was f**kin' sweet [sm=youreright.gif]

So my question now is that would you go with 255/40s on 18 x 9s and 285/35s on 18 x 10.5s?

ORRRR

I might be limited to 255/35s and 275/35s.........what would be the difference in the look of the tire?
