That's what I do, as well. I run Proxy II's on my 20" style 87 wheels for the summer and 18" Proxy II's on style 74 wheels for the winter months.

The 18's grip much better in snow/slush than the wider 20" staggers, and they sling up less road goobers on the outside of the fenders.

.... and TreadDepot is the way to go......and if you're putting them on a 4.6is, 18" wheel is as small as you can go because of the size of the front rotor....afaik.
