gold28 Forums Junkie Location: Madrid - Spain Registered: August 2002	Re: 16 or 17 inch rims on RA23 Celica Wed, 22 September 2004 10:11 I am running 205-50-16's on the back of my 28 and 205-45-16's on the front. There is photos of it in the "photo shoot" gallery if your interested in what they look like. Putting wider wheels on the front increases tyre drag and the load experienced on your steering components. They won't break but your pitman and idler arms will wear out faster. Shane, the hammering your car gets has a lot to do with the tyre wall stiffness. I was using 205-50-16 Falkens on the front of mine and the ride was pretty harsh. I am now using 205-45-16 Nangkangs on the front and it handles better and the ride is a lot softer. [Report message to a moderator]
