Interesting article on the effects of different wheel sizes

I put the 17s on because i had some yoko a048s on them. The ride was better (even with hard tyres), better grip as they are more compliant. Just 'better'

Only reason i sold them is that they dont fit on my car now, otherwise I would probably be running 17s all the time.

Fair enough, I've been having this internal debate about whether or not to switch to 18's for a few months now and it's annoying me tbh 

I know that TD 1.2's are the best performance value but I prefer the ultraleggera's but they're £1200 and I love the way my current wheels look. I really like my current wheels and doubt the performance improvement will be enough to be worth the switch but I still want to try and would like some winter wheels.

I just like to change things for the sake of it, I've done it with oil, tyres, intake (which was well worth it), brake discs and probably more. I think I have an addiction

We all have an addiction... but we are here to help each other.

Haha, by suggesting different new things to do??

Well, 18s would massively improve the ride from 19s
