18" vs. 19" Wheels, are 19" auto-x/raceable?
I have stock wheels and I want to upgrade to something a little nicer.
I'm really inspired by a below thread to pic up some BBS LM knock-offs but they only come in a 19" size.
I want a wheel that looks nice and that I can still take to the track and/or autocross. Would a 19" wheel be too large and rub in the corners or would it be fine?
For some reason I have been under the impression that 18" is the best size.
Thanks,
Jacob

yes. No reason to get 18's for the track unless you're going with a 355 bbk for example.
sure the 18's look nicer, but it's a bit cheaper to just stick with 17's. Also you might be able to run a wider tire on a 17 rim than 18.
