Tyre life is the big problem with 18s
I'd go for the 16

I'm a joiner and I run on 18's, tbh I'd stick to the 16's

The 18's are slidy is the winter and your always worried about overloading them and buckling!
Harsh on the bumps and the the low profiles are easy damaged.
Lucky if you get 12k out a set of fronts!


But then? The 18's look cool

Tyre load index is the greatest problem with 18s
I'd go for the 16

I've got the fox viper 16" on mine, can't fault the ride on them.
