Ok I live in Ohio, and we get a desent amout of weather, Snow and rain. This year I asked my parents for 18" rims for Christmas. So they went to a tire dealer (I think they said Goodyear) and they said that 18's are very poor in everything but handeling, they said:
1. They cant be used for winter because they will slide all over the place
2. They will hydroplane a lot
3. The stopping distance on them is very poor I.E. the brakes aren't "big" enough to handel them.
Are these all true statements, or did they just blow it all out of perportion???
And are there "all season" tires for the 18's??
And can you driive on 18's safely in the winter time??
THANKS!!!
(sorry I didn't do a search, I didn't know what to serch for)
