17s, too small? That is what I was thinking of getting. 17s is suppose to be a smoother ride.

Anybody had 17s and moved up to 18s?

lol yeh u do ankii :p

i like your car a lot
but im tryin to decide between 18's and 17's right now...

17's will be a LOT cheaper , tires will last longer ( i think ? ), and smoother ride ( right ? )

but 18's look tight :|

i have 17's i think they nice. i didnt want something too big because i think that if you put big rims on a nice car it makes the car look cheesey but that is just my oppinion.

it all depends on you bud,
if you don't use your car a lot... i mean if you have another car to take you around like long trips or something, then go for 18's

then your ride isn't as harsh, and your tires don't wear out as quick

but if you use it everyday... plus if you have bad roads where u live.. go for 17's
they look pretty sweet themselves
