17"s or 18"s ROAD WHEELS
 

Hi Folks,


I appreciated that 18" wheels seems to be the norm now.


But is it not generally accepted that 17" is better for a road car.


Being lighter and more sidewall on the tyre?

Think the general opinion is that the classic rides better on a 17" wheel, obviously the less side wall you have the more the ride will be compromised but on track less side wall means less flex, guess it's a compromise of ride quality over handling.

Thought so, thanks for confirming Red Baron.
