just like to topic says. I am going to buy ROH RT Black Ice rims. Eather 18x9 or 17x9. I can't decide. I know most of the pros of going with a 17 over 18, like more traction and less chance of denting a wheel. and all in all the 17s will be 300 less than if I went with 18s. I am going to put them on my daily driver 92 RS. I also like seeing a little side wall like on the 17s. I looked at a 02 TA WS6 today at a dealership "drool" and it has really nice 17s. But If I go with 17s I just don't want to be dissapointed and wish I would have went with 18 for a little more $.
Let me hear some opinions.

Dont forget too- tires are going to be cheaper if you go with the 17s over the 18s. If something like that is important to you...

I went with the 17x8.5

ture, that's why I said all in all it will be 300 cheaper. 100 less for the rims and 200 less for tires. I plan on going with Kumho 712 ECSTA Supra tires

Ah, ok. I thought the 300 was just in the wheels. Factor in how long your tires will last- that might be an extra 200 every year or two. (not sure how often/how hard you drive the car)

in that profile of rims 18 would look to big. but 275 on 17s would look sweet

It's a done deal, I ordered them yesterday. If I really don't like them I will probably eventualy get 18s but I have seen the 17s on a mustang and I though they were 18s at first. and my old 18s had a lot of vibration. So I should get better handling (no side roling) and not as much vibrations as with 18s. I really wanted to see the two sizes side by side to compair but I will still be happy with them.
