if youre worried about scrubbing 225s are the way to go. Make sure the load rating is correct.
As BY said, it's all relative. Different wheels will have a visual impact but not necessarily a positive one.I think Im getting the wheels first instead now. im looking at my car right now, and the 17s do really seem to small, and the wheels will have more of an impact on looks.
Ok so Im going the 18s - what tyre size do I need, 225 or 235 or 240? And can anyone recommend a good tyre from tire rack that isnt stupidly expensive, perhaps comparable to the federal RSR's?

VMR WHeels recommend the Kumho Ecsta SPT's. How are these? They are pretty cheap, but are they low quality?
Saad. I am sure that you are a good guy, and smart. But asking all these questions on a forum aren't going to get you very far. The best thing to do is to look all these up and read about them first. The more you know about the different components of the car, the more you will learn about how everything is going to work together under different conditions.

Doin that now, cheers mate
Hmm the Yokohama Advan 08s dont meet the required load rating, which is a shame as they look like a great tyre.
Might try the kumhos, as they are only $106 per tyre from tire rack, and recommended by VMR. The Bridgestone RE050A's look good too, and they;re used on the Enzo so cant be too bad!
