Tire control/Grip Question

[Auraraptor]

I was thinking of puting the 17in wide rear seven spoke tires in the front as well; so I would have 17 all around

My logic is that the front tires+wider=more control and better grip.

Is my logic flawed? IS this a good idea or not?

I dont think you can fit 17" wide wheels on the car

LOL! And, about those seven-spoke tires...

Seriously, though, if you are considering putting the stock seven-spoke 17" rear wheels (from the '94-01 NSX) on the front of the car, it's not a good idea. They're too wide (8.5 inches); the offset is different (60 mm rear, 55 mm front); and the center bore (the size of the center hole) is different (64 mm rear, 70 mm front).
