I'm really interested in an answer for jimbo's questions too. Because I'd like to get a set of 17" rims with semi slicks for track days, and I was thinking of getting wider rear tires though. Dropping down to a 17" would allow for going wider without going over the weight of the 18" thinner tire do to a smaller diameter. However I really don't know what negative effects having a wider tire would do to the cars handling because I've never really looked into it before. I had been interested in either working with someone to make a wide body rear panel kit, or wait for someone else to make one, and then just use spacers for the 18" wheels when the wider 17" wheels aren't on it.
