Question is, are you getting a lower profile tire so that the overall height matches stock? Otherwise you may need to recalibrate for your speedometer which could be off due to poor tire selection. I read some folks have had ABS problems if there is a mismatch with front and rear overall height being off.
Ok guy's your going to have to help the old man out. 18" rim are make the car go around corners better? what does the rim size have to do with the power the car has? The over all diameter effects the power but not the rim size. Infact if you are building a drag car you want smaller rims and larger tire to get a better launch so I ask "how is 18" rims over kill on a v6"?

I can't stand the look of 18's or larger. To me 18's on any car but an import is like 24's on a Escalade. IHMO it just looks ridiculous, and riceish.
