What is the advantage of 17-inch wheels?
Considerations. 17-inch tires get better traction since there is more rubber on the road, especially for vehicles carrying more than average weight.
Are 17-inch wheels better?
When you move to a larger wheel diameter (such as from 17 to 18 inches), you need new tires to match. While larger-diameter wheels and tires should improve handling and high-speed performance, lower-profile tires also tend to have a firmer ride and may be noisier than the smaller, standard rubber.
Are 17-inch wheels good for off road?
For off-road performance, we prefer to stick to the rule of thumb of running a wheel diameter no bigger than half the tire height. That typically means 15 or 16-inch wheels for 33s and 17-inch wheels for 35s or so. If you want sufficient sidewall flex on the trail, stay away from lower-profile tires.

Are 16 or 17 inch tires better?
AAA – Yes, wheel size has a big impact on ride comfort. The smaller 16-inch wheels come with tyres that have larger sidewalls that act as cushions against sharp edges on the roads, like ruts and potholes. While 17-inch tyres look much better, the shorter sidewalls aren’t as good in filtering out road shocks.
Do bigger tires reduce gas mileage?
For example, larger tires decrease your fuel economy because they are heavier, while smaller tires increase fuel efficiency. Bigger tires also have a higher rolling resistance than smaller tires which means they require more resistance and effort to get them rolling.
Do bigger tires help off-road?
Fitting larger wheels is a staple off-roading modification for a reason. Larger wheels do lift a truck higher into the air, increasing ground clearance. But the increase in wheel size has additional benefits. And large tires do help a truck handle better on dirt and gravel, and even with on-pavement braking.
Are 18-inch wheels OK for off-road?
“Off-roading on 18-inch or 20-inch wheels is probably not the best idea as you’ll feel every bump, however good 18-inch off-road tyres are now readily available for vehicles which cannot downsize due to a large OEM wheel size,” he added.
