Dom...get 17's...18's handling charateristics aren't as good as 17's, the ride will be much harsher on 18's. BECAUSE...if you get 18's you'll have to plus size to at least 40 to get them to fit. You haven't lowered it yet right? So 18's may "Look" cool and might not rub even if you take that lip off but if you have any plans on lowering it, I would stick with the 17's. Are you going to autocross it???
Sorry I didn't answer earlier. I am in the process of moving to Antioch...I really hate Great Lakes area...too much crime.
BTW...man I'm pissed!!!!!!! yesterday I was on 94, going North on to 173...as I came through the toll-booth, I put my 75 cents in, the pole lifted up and I went through...as I was going through the GD pole came slamming down on my car...anyway after that a varible palethera of profanities came out of my mouth. It scratched the trunk lid pretty good and the left roof line too. Good thing I'm planning on repainting it soon. oh and I'll show you my pics of that next meet. actually I could email them to you.
Anyway, sorry I didn't get back sooner.
