No, not really as the tyres will end up with ( as near as dammit ) the same rolling diameter. I have 17" & 19" alloys for my 2002 STI, one set for "shows" the other for back roads and track days.

My old shed ?

I had it all "scripted" in the old system, till a numpty offered to come round and " sort me out ! " so I went all coy like, shy and retiring me.....

And don't start me off on all those sad losers trying to become my "friend"...... ( Only joking fellas ! )

P.S. I came last at the rising sun car show last weekend.... well last one home !
