voice of reason says 17, but i would still go for 18's if money were no object. gotta shine mannnnn.

Put 17s on the left side and 18s on the right. This will level the car out on crowned roadways.

i get a flat tire after hitting a huge pothole

On the way back from work last night, I hit a massive, crater like pot hole

Function follows form... as usual. :roll:

Thanks for the advice gramps. At least we know the ol' Crown Vic is safe from bling wheels. :roll:

I've had three flats in the last three weeks on my work truck. Now I'm sporting four shiny new tires. Only 16"s though. I feel so inadequate.

It really depends on the vehicle. Some vehicles look better with certain sizes, and if you increase your rim size correctly, you can get better traction and handling.

On my year Mustang's for example, the '87-'93 foxes, they look good with 17's, but 18's just don't look right on a car that came with 15" and 16" rims. I ended up replacing my 16" x 7" rims skinned with 225/55/16's, and going with a 17" x 9" rim with 245/45/17's. I may skip to up a 255 or 265 in the rear when I kill these Dunlops.

I hope he has big brakes underneath those big wheels, otherwise he's going to have a big problem when it comes to stopping.

Fvcking tards. At least I don't have to drive like a grandpa!

• Ultra low profile tires are especially vulnerable to sidewall damage when hitting curbs or potholes...
  
  I know a number of people in New England that haave smashed a 17" wheel on the awful potholes in the area.
  
  A taller sidewall 235/75R15 passenger car tire sustained no damage at any speed, he added.
  
  ...personally I'd go with 17" wheels since it still looks good and give you enough sidewall that if you do hit a pothole, you'll be less likely to crack your new wheels.
  
  Simply BRILLIANT!

So, you are aware that you can upgrade your rim size while not going to a "ultra low profile" right? Even so, do you realize that taller sidewalls flex more, and result in worse handling. I realize you drive a land yacht, so you are used to that floaty feeling, but can you not realize just because you have your opinion, others that don't agree are not "fvcking tards"?

Who pissed in your cheerios anyhow?
