This year we have the 17" Pirelli's next year they should be an option for 18" BFG's. 
I was wondering if the larger rim size will decrease the rear gear ratio from 3:55 to something like 3:27. That would make the 2005 with the 17" wheels faster then the 2006 with the 18" wheels unless the Pirelli's are a real tall tire and then the two heights would be comparable. Anybody have a clue? :scratch:
