Does 2 inches more really make a that big of a difference?

[her209]

17" -> 19"

:light:

 

[HappyPuppy]

It makes a huge difference. I can actually see mine now. :roll:

 

[Zanix]

anything over a foot is too much

 

[Zeeky Boogy Doog]

couldn't tell ya, got an old 17" which isnt going anywhere for quite some time, no cash to upgrade....

 

[3chordcharlie]

There's always a trade-off:

You definitely get the look with +2, and you can fit tighter rubber.

But the extra unsprung weight can really really kill ya.

Is there anything you can't make better with a car anaology?

 

[StormRider]

Oh GOD! Yes! If only mine were 2 inches bigger!

 

[DaWhim]

i have an inch more. it is nicer! 18.1" LCD.

 

[Conky]

Mines too big. I wish I could lop a couple inches off of it.

 

[Ikonomi]

Yes, I have a 17" and I want more.

But he should be.

If you're already into 50-series tires or so, you aren't going to gain that much from bigger rims, especially without adding the suspension to handle the rubber.

On most vehicles, without extensive modification, anything over +1 from stock is largely for appearance. And a lot of manufacturers have started selling what is essentially +1 from the factory, so in a lot of cases you would get just as much from better tires as from new wheels and tires.

Did for me, though I'm now considering dual LCDs, as low as 17 apiece. Widescreen movies suck even on the 19.

 

[DaFinn]

Whats a few inches among friends...

 

[moshquerade]

it all depends...

 

[konakona]

idk, they always say its NOT all about the size....

 

[yakko]

It's not the size of the boat but the motion in the ocean.

 

[PrinceofWands]

No idea...I've had 24" since the first week of the Sony GDM FW900.

 

[Juice Box]

Not always common knoweledge, but for they say for those overweight, you gain around 1/4 inch for every 15 pounds you loss (the 'fat pad' right above it hides quite a bit of lenght)

Just an extra incentive for those porkers out there to hit the gym!
