I want to put a set of new 18" wheels on a 2001 S What would be the BEST handling tire size and wheel width & offset?

18"x 7.5 front - 55 offset
18"x 9 rear - 63 offset

or is 17" better

Personally I'd go for 17" (which I did)... After getting the 17" for my S (MY02), I first thought I should've gone for 18" but now I think it's just right...

Most people (on this board anyway) would say 17" is more for performance (handling, light weight, etc) & 18" is for bling.... I don't know much about either one but I do know that it's hard (& VERY EXPENSIVE) to get a set of 18"s that are lighter than the OEM 16"s....

It all depends on what you're looking for...

Just my 2c

sounds like a Volk setup.

225 front and 255 rear are perfect for those widths
