Regarding 18 versus 17 wheels, speedometor readings and shift points are controled by outside diameter of tires so if a vehicle comes with both wheel sizes to keep this OD the same usually the 18's will have a shorter sidewall (and less air cushion may result in harsher ride) .

I've driven the same vehicle with 17's and 18's and I'll take the 17" Michelin's every time. It much flatter and smoother ride.
 
PS - no road noise either. My LT2 is quiet as a church mouse.

The wheel gap makes me feel presidential.
