That's a really BIG difference in diameter change for the wheels.... 18's & 20's are very noticeable...... I'm afraid the 17/20 combo will not look good @ all (especially w/them being basically the same width).

Why the different diameter choice?

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
