vxr's look better, but i guess it depends on your tolerance for feeling bumps

The VXR 18''s for me look better. Although they are very similar to the std 17''s

Bigger wheels ALWAYS look best !!!

You just have to look at the few valid questions relating to such a choice...

- Is the ride/comfort ok ?
- Is the cost of the larger rims/tyres ok ?
- Is the look of the larger wheels better for you ?

If yes to all of the above, then go for the bigger ones, if not, keep the smaller ones :)

They look pretty much the same. VXR`s are nicer as they are bigger wheels.

I will have to stick the 17's on as the 18's Rub a bit when driving hard
I will get a 2nd hand set of 18's an Mill them down a bit so they fit 100% how i want :)

Out of the two, the 18s do look better.

Beat me to it Rocco! That would definitely be my choice.

But there again, if you really, really, REALLY want to keep the 18s, just send the now useless 17s to me and I guess I'll just have to try to be happy with that compromise!
