I agree the 17" would look better, but the car will be driven on NYC streets. I don't know if you have ever been or seen what a NYC pothole can do to a 60 series tire and wheel not to mention all the potholes felt. I need some side wall deflection to 1 protect the wheels and 2 to keep the suspension from getting pounded to bits. I have another car with 18's on 40 series rubber and I drive it from MD to NYC once, I WILL NEVER DO THAT AGAIN! Needed to see the chiro after that trip
