plexy is an unknown quantity at this point
Default 17" or 18"

It's time for me to replace the wheels, my 18" chromies look horrible. I'll be getting FNO1RCs from ICE888 but...Undecided about the size...18" look badass but the ride is really bumpy with my Intrax springs ..especially on our horrible roads in Cleveland. I've never driven the car on 17" but I suppose extra air cushion will help a bit. Let alone the price difference for wheels and tires. Is there a noticeable difference in ride quality? I don't roadrace, so the extra sharp cornering is nice but isn't really that big of a deal for me.

i don't know about ride quality, but the price of all of the quality 18" tire sizes i'd like to run has always detered me from stepping up an inch.

the price jump from 17" to 18" tires is freaking ridiculous.
