It's all about compromise. 17x9 with 245-40-17's might look and grip great but 17x8 with 225-45-17 will be lighter, ride better and get better mpg. I also don't want to lose the fun factor with too much grip.

Thanks. My new problem seems to be finding the size, style, offset and finish I want all together.

For me at least, it's function over form. 18's look good but make a slow car even slower.
