My point was that usually I see people prefer just going with 17s. My understanding is that with 18s setup, you'll be investing in a lot more $ into it.

I must admit that Duaine's (S2S) car looks really good with his 19's!

I would stay with the 18s for daily. Just for looks =p
If you do track your car or autox, just get another set of 16s stock.

I have 18s and it makes the ride a bit stiffer and bumpier.
If you live in an area with lots of broken roads, this might annoy you.

As for handling and power, I haven't noticed the differences in daily driving.

Thats exactly what I was thinkin actually... I wanted to get some really good rubber just for autocross ans then switch back to my 18's when im done.... RE-11R or RT615s I heard are a good tire to run in auto X... What would the size be on those??? 205-55-16 Front and 225-50-16 Rear???? Since the bridgestones are actually wider than they say?? Surrgestions would be great for that as well... thanks....
