[QUOTE="Ry_Trapp0, post: 7889409, member: 27761"] i dont think anyone has said that the shorter sidewall makes the car handle worse(infact, that goes against all rational and conventional thought), rather the car may handle better with the shorter tire of the 18" wheel. also keep in mind that the sidewall on the KR is a little thicker for ride quality too. the KR, while being the track version of the GT500, is still a full interior street car. another thing to keep in mind about rim size is that they are usually only as big as neccesary to fit the brakes behind them. the ZR1 for instance has 20" wheels to fit the 15" front discs, while the 2000 cobra R had 18" wheels to fit the 13" brakes(although i believe the inside of the wheel may be tighter than other 18" wheels, dont quote me though).
