I never said anything about facts. My opinions are opinions just like everyone else's.

I'm okay with spending a little extra on tires for 18s, do you really think performance will be compromised over 17s?

People with exp speak up! Thanks!

Yep, 17's of the same model will be lighter which helps all around performance. CCW wouldn't make me a 17's which is the only reason I went with 18's. Only certain 17's can fit a BBK also.

The weight difference can be around 4lbs per corner.

16lbs of unsprung rotating weight... They say that 1lb of unsprung weight is equivelant to 2lbs of static weight. So it would be like cruising around with an extra 32lbs in the car.

Different weight wheels are pretty obvious then you drive them back to back.
