17" or 18" rims
Looking for opinions.....
When choosing a set of rims, which would what size (17" or 18") would you prefer and why.
I have an AP2, so it came with 17's.
If I changed rims, and kept them 17's, I could use the stock S02's, which I like.
If I go to 18's, I got to get something else.
Is there a better choice of STREET tires for the 17's then the 18's?
Is there a better choice of RACE tires for the 17's vs the 18's?
Which size is prefered by the folks who track their cars? Does gearing come in to consideration?
Inquiring minds want to know.....
TIA

You have more Slick options if you have 18s.

If Honda engineered the suspension and car for 17's, i am confident to stay with that
18's will probably make the ride a little harsher too, which is something i am not looking for.
