always thought that 18's looked a bit big on a classic, look just right on some
did hear about not going over 17's to keep the handling sweet though, don't know how true that is............

mmm, so general consensus is they don;t affect the handeling but some folks have had issues? would this be a geom setup issue rather than a mechanical issue (for lack of a better description)
