rims 17s or 18s

Hey guys,

I have a decision to make i have chosen a new rim for my 67.
Its a showwheel streeter.

I was having rubbing problems on the front and investigated and found a 1inch spacer bolted to hub meaning rims are the wrong backspace 6in. 5in with the 1inch spacer fitted.

Hence the reason for new rims i had 17s with 235-45-17 all round.

I am not sure weather to jump to 18s i would love to hear how many people out there have 18s and no rubbing issues.

Or should i stay conservative with the 17s opinions advice appreciated!
Clint
