Title: 17\'s or 18\'s
Post by: MintyFresh on February 14, 2004, 12:01:54 PM
can i put 17" or 18"  wheels on an FD without lowering it? what i mean is will it look terrible?

anyone have any pics of an FD3 with 17\'s or 18\'s not lowered?

17\'s.  The later ones had 17s standard anyway.  18s shouldnt be a problem either as enough people have them, but its a bit big for me personally!

Also 17\'s. Not too bad at all, really. Lowering wouldn\'t hurt, I guess, but even without it doesn\'t look too much like a tractor :)

id suggest 17s..
lighter 18s are now available..
for either.. consider a wider patch to transfer power to the ground..
check my sig for 18 pics..
