ive seen many 17s on 914s and it seems like the profile could allow for 1" larger rims and still have some tires. about how much sidewall is left with 17s?? how much more jarring is a 914 with 17s as compared with 16's?
anybody have pictures of 18's on a 914?

experiences/facts would be nice. opinions arent of much use, i dont much care how you think it will look. and if you havent ridden in a 914 with 18's, im not sure you could tell me much about how it would ride either.

i talk big, but someday maybe ill have the big money; i intend on making this a track car, hopefully somewhere in the range of a 200mph topspeed. i think some lightweight 18s would be appropriate for such a purpose.
