Should I go with 17" or 18" C5s?
I'm wanting to order some Chrome C5 wheels but can't decide between 17" or 18". I'm sure the 18s would look better, but would they hurt me in performance? I'll probably get some Drag Radials for my stock wheels to use at the track but I still want good traction and not to lose performance on the street. Is the inch difference that big of deal in appearance? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />

It is a big difference in appearance to me, and it might hurt performance a little, but unless you're racing with them, it won't really matter. If price is not an issue, get the 18s! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Go with the 18's I put the C5 rims on my car and love them except it looks like it sits a little higher but they are still awesome!
