Does any one know if you lose drive-ability if you fit 18 inch alloys on a classic, especially one with big power.
 
JPtypeRA has 18's and as everyone seen on track as well as the road his car handles like a train. :thumbsup:
 
Evoman: I'm on 18" as well.. you may have a round in my train on the next meet to compare if you like :thumbsup:
 
Same here and no problems. You may need to get your arch's rolled, not too expensive though :thumbsup:

Cheers lads, I heard a few people saying that they dont handle as well when on 18s. I will take yer word on it. :thumbsup:
 
Tough choice you have!
As far as I know, you can go as wide as 215/35/18, but you can fit 225/40 on 17"s an the bigger sidewall would give better traction and better grip on bumpy/ rough surfaces!

Im actually lookin for a smaller set of wheels for my motor.... Although it is comfortable and all on the 18's I just think i prefer the look of a slightly smaller rim with a bit more sidewall on the tyre and as Dan pointed out there I can go that little bit wider on the foot print then too.....
