Question:

Are metal braces with ceramic brackets considered as ceramic braces?

I want to get braces soon, and i know metal braces are the cheapest. I heard theres a choice of metal or ceramic brackets. I checked it out, and I know for sure that I want ceramic brackets. I just want to know if that will cost me as much as paying for ceramic braces ?

Answer:

they should be just a little narrower and a tiny bit taller(60 series) it should be an issue at all. your car is rear wheel drive so it doesnt have to have same size tires front and rear just same size on each axel. (55's on front 60's on rear). but you may notice a small handling difference with the taller narrower tires.
the numbers in xxx/yyRzz are: xxx tread width (in millimeters) yy [tire height (rim to tread) / tread width] * 100 zz rim size (in inches) Therefore, your tire tread is 225 millimeters wide, your old tires were 55% of that, or 124 millimeters from edge of rim to tread, and fit a 16 inch wheel. The only difference is that the new tires are 135 millimeters from rim to tread, meaning your car will be travelling 5% faster then your speedometer says (58 MPH instead of 55 MPH)
I have ceramic and i like them because they are clear and you cant really see them but they cost a lot more and will take a little longer.
Oh god I have ceramic Get them I Love them there invisible! Metal SUCKS and they cost me 100$ more maybe. Very good deal
