My 18" have low profile tyres so the rolling diameter hasn't changed
Would this still affect handling or performance? (Apart from weighing a bit more)

So what 18" wheels DO you have?

Those 18" EVO's DO change the rolling diameter. I had exactly that problem when I had them on my 00 S.
I don't have that problem now with the correctly sized 17's

you do know those are the same all round! Plus there is no info on offset, weight or tyre make!
Cheap though!
