Yes. IMO if you're already going to get the 18s in the rear, get some for the front too. It's personal preference, but I can't stand the look of the 17/18 mix. Nice job with the sixer, by the way. How much money have you put into that thing by now? You want to buy me a Kenne Bell? lol

Usually tire profile will cancel out the size difference. The tires that are on my 17'' rims make them about .25-.5" taller than my 18" set of rims.

From what I know if the tires aren't the same total height the abs wont be able to work properly, although I'm not 100%
