I would like to put them on my bike for next season but want to make sure I'm not making a mistake. I love the look of the 21"/18" tire combo, but don't want to sacrifice the ride quality.

A friend also mentioned that instead of going with the 21" front tire, that I would be better off with a 19" tire and would look just as good.

Thanks.
I say go for it!!! I will never go back to stock wheels... The 21/18 handling is a little stiffer but not very much to write home about. Besides the looks and compliments you get will over shadow any difference in ride...
