If you are like myself, you have changed your wheels/tires or atleast considered it. I am looking at replacing the stock 97 wheels with a 17X8/18X10 configuration (cosmetic reasons only). My 91 also had the late model 16/17 setup.
My question is: is there any handling benefits to a larger wheel/tire setup? As a side note, stock cars run a 15" wheel.
Also, would you consider running a 18/19 setup? Any TCS problems with this large of a rim on a 97?
With a recent purchase of Michelin Pilot Sports, I would think the traction, handling could not possibly get any better.
Is the larger wheel/tire setup mainly cosmetic?
Thanks in advance.
