Thread: Do bigger rims improve handling noticeably?

Hey guys I'm going to be buying some new rims and I always thought that with a bigger rim and a smaller less sidewall tire the handling would improve. I'm just curious if it's a noticeable improvement or not really. Going from a 60series to a 45 series tire to be exact. 45 I believe is correct for 18" rims. Thanks

Handling doesn't really change with different wheels, it's more a fact that a shorter sidewall doesn't roll and allow the movement of a taller sidewall. Rest of the suspension plays into how the car handles as well.

Got any tires picked out yet? Weather checked Eagle GT's were on when I bought it. I chose some BFG Comp2 A/S, which are great so far.

Have fun with the search and new look!
