QUOTE(rublik @ Jan 27 2011, 07:53 PM) Hehe, too late for me. Btw, why do some of you guys change to 17" instead of 18"? Is the price difference for 18" tyres much more than 17"s? Or is it the rims? I can't find the source, but If i remember correctly, ride and handling between 17" and 18" difference is negligible. So if the price points are similar, might as well go for the 18" as it looks nicer IMO haha.

17 inch cheaper to maintain as tyres are not as expensive as 18. Another thing is the profile for 17 will be slightly higher so better comfort.
Larger the size, more expensive is the tyre

Tires price has gone up, so you might be surprise how much you would need to pay. Plus, that BE by breyton is consider light rim and the price is consider okay. Try to look for Japanese rim, you be surprise how much it will cost.

I see. I really know nuts about car tyres, so... thanks for the info  Damn, anyone got that link of the test of different sized tyres? They got a car, put in 15,16,17,18 (something like that) and tested them. Very good read, with nice pictures to help you visualize the size. Can't even google it ><
