Default A8 18" wheels question......

Please forgive my ignorance but hear goes..

In general what is the reason for choosing a bigger vs smaller tire on a performance sedan, besides the "cool" factor?

What performace gain or differances will I experience with the 18" vs 17" tires on an A8L? I live in Seattle with lots of rain.

What will I notice on wet rainy conditions with one vs the other?

BTW... I really like the optional 18" tires that are optional with the North American A8L. They are conservative. Innocuous, but very handsome!


thanks for your help,

green
