I haven't done the math here, but if you're also getting proportionally lower-profile tires, wouldn't it be the same overall tire diameter?

H&R OE Sports are a 1" drop, BTW.

Yes, of course you keep diameter the same by dropping the profile. That's what the rules of thumb for "plus-sizing" are all about. That's half of why this is so hilarious. And then, when you realize that 18" is the diameter, not the radius, such that it doesn't even work out if you assume the same sidewalls, you end up on the floor.

Mods: move to the newbie forum before someone gets really hurt.

The kids want the 18s for the bling bling... let them. Us old folks need something to smile about.
