Is there such a thing as an optimal wheel/tire size? I'm looking primarily at 17x7 and wider or 18x8 front and 18x9 rear. Is one better or worse than the other? From various threads and articles I've read it seems that 17" is the sweet spot for performance, looks, and driveability. Does this hold true for our cars?
