17" or 18" inch that is the question...

Im getting some rims....I got a real good deal for some Very Nice 18s but i was told 18 was a lil 2 big for a 95 max...

Supposedly 17s R "Perfect with some 40 2 45 seriez low pros....." I think 17s would be 2 small... but then again i dont want to get anything bigger if they scrape, i cant stand that shi@ !!

Any examples or tips would be much appreciated...

For looks get 18s or 19s. They will be fine up to 9" wide, 255-275 tires...

Rims don't scrape, they dent.

People here run 16s, 17s, 18s, 19s even 20s just fine, and you can too.

Just take a look around at everyone's homepage if you need examples of sizes.

And if you need more info on wheels:

the bigger the rim the better chance it shall get bent/damaged.
the bigger the rim the thinner the tire, the worse the ride.
the bigger the rim the heavier the wheels/car is, which makes you slower.
the bigger the rim the more it will cost you, 18s n 19s which are light cost mad $$$
i'd go with 18's big enough to look good in a dropped max and the tire is not a rubber band to the roads don't suck to drive on here in mass the roads are bad.
