WTK: could someone shine some light

Postby guiness » May 1st, 2007, 12:37 am

what are the advantages/disadvantages of having a set of rims two of which are 17x7.5 and the other two are 18x7.5?

different size rim/tyres make it more difficult to tune your car handling wise and can even interfer with your car's traction control and other electronic handling aid systems...

but once the overall height of the rim/tyre is kept within about ~2% of stock height, everything should be ok...
