but then again, depending on your suspension (or lack of for stance people), none of the above matters other than looks.
too many variable for a vague question (your post seems more like a rant than a question though...)

When I find wheels that I really like the look of, they are 18" or above. This is the spoke design. I'm not after "stance" but I don't want wheels I don't like the look of.
Obviously tyres make a huge difference - I'll chuck on whatever is best for the size.
I'll also do my suspension.
So the question kind of remains - why is there such great variety in 18" wheels compared to 17"? I'm not asking about width or offset. Tyre wall size is something I'm interested in.
All things considered, is there a performance advantage of sticking with 17"?
