TLontheDL Posted December 9, 2002 Share Posted December 9, 2002 17 inches are perfect. 18s is better but if your streets are crapty, you'd bend them easily. plus the tires for 17"s are a lot cheaper than 18s so stick with 17s...unless you have money oh and is your car dropped? if so 18's might rub with people in the back seat, unless you roll your fenders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EGRacer Posted December 9, 2002 Share Posted December 9, 2002 yes 17s are very good for your car. also what mark said about the streets being crappy that they will bend your rims within a week or two of u having em Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLontheDL Posted December 10, 2002 Share Posted December 10, 2002 yeah if your car is dropped on 17s or 18s, you wont rub....just dont have any fat asses sitting in your back seat, like me :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TLontheDL Posted December 10, 2002 Share Posted December 10, 2002 yeah if your road sucks....find another daily route or something. fixing a bent wheel can vary from couple of hundred bucks to almost the same price of a whole new wheel. what i do is get thick tires. it looks crapty on an aftermarket wheel but hey...it saves your wheel! i got a 45mm width on my wheel and i know my wheels have taken a beating!! its still not bent yet *knock on wood* houston streets are crappy... when you get wheels, you know EXACTLY where each pothole is! i know i do!! if you blind fold me, id be able to tell you a upcoming pothole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
optional187 Posted December 11, 2002 Share Posted December 11, 2002 lol yeah, problem is that when it rains around here a few more potholes open up and it takes at least a two days for them damn county people to get out here and fix em. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLontheDL Posted December 11, 2002 Share Posted December 11, 2002 yeah i know! if theres a hole, they'll fill it up with some type of cement. then when it rains, the cement gets soft or something.....and cars run over the area, then it becomes a pothole again!! here in houston, it takes like 2 wks - months until they refill the potholes so you got it good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
