It kind of all depends on why you’re considering changing the wheels and tyres on your vehicle. If it’s for aesthetics, then go right ahead, but bear in mind that ride quality will likely suffer as a result. That’s because an 18-inch tyre will (typically) have less sidewall depth than a 17-inch tyre. And a tyre’s sidewall plays a huge part in how a car feels to ride in. Fundamentally, the smaller the sidewall, the harsher the ride will be.
In an off-road sense, you’re probably better off sticking with 17-inch wheels, too. By fitting an all-terrain tyre, you’ll improve your off-road grip. That said, all-terrain tyres (once restricted to smaller sizes) and now available in 18, 19, 20 and even 21-inch fitments.
