Wheels
I see alot of tegs w/17 wheels and then dropped...I know that an 18" will fit but does that take away from the handling since you have to get a tire size thats 215/35/18? Basically which size performs better???

The 18 would handle better if you were on a perfectly smooth track and had the suspension and tire compound to make it all stick- but the slightest bump will throw it off, and you're going to be limited in tire choice when looking for something decent. Stick to the 17.
