Positive effects:
* Looks good!
Negative effects:
* Rims exposed to curb damage
* Tires distorted due to being fitted on a rim that is too wide, thus, requiring much higher inflation pressures to prevent excessive wear on the edges of the tread surface
* Rough choppy ride due to higher inflation requirements
* Possibility of tire coming off the bead if impacted
* Higher rate of wear and tear on suspension components and wheel bearings
* Poor directional stability due to wrong offset being used
* Increased understeer in FWD vehicles due to wider rear wheels
* Decreased turning radius
* Tires need to be changed more often
* Extra cost of a wider wheel
*
Body damage
