Default a Daft question about wheels??

If you put 17" on the front and 18"s on the back or 18s front and 19s rear how would that affect the handling?

Thanks

RD

Not sure how it would affect the handling but I'm pretty sure it would knacker your diffs from what I can remember reading on here before. Would create wind up in the diffs I think is the problem but I'm sure someone who knows about this stuff will be along soon to say for sure.

I don't think it would knacker the diffs if the tyre OUTER diameter is the same in both cases.
