Why do some sport cars have smaller diameter rims on the front axle? For example, 17's on the front and 18's on the rear. What is the purpose and is there an advantage that someone like me doesn't comprehend? I've only had FWD and AWD cars (actually that's a lie :lol: because I had a 1994 Toyota truck, which was RWD), but they've always had the same diameter rims on all four corners.
I understand staggered tires; smaller up front and larger in the rear. However, I don't understand smaller diameter rims on the front axle.
