Wheel, Wheel Size Pros/Cons Options

[Skate4mindgame]

What size wheels do you think you get the best performance out of?

What are some of your opinions?

Its not the wheel size as much as it is the overall wheel/tire weight and overall height, stock tire diameter is 23.90 for the 205/55-15. stock GT wheels are approx 17lb.
An 18" wheel with a 35 series tire CAN be the same height and weight as a stock 15" GT wheel - depends on brands, so it wouldnt make any performance difference unless it is lighter overall, (other than whatever traction differences there are in the tread) look for the lightest wheel and tire for performance.
If the wheels and tires you get are taller than stock combo, you will lose some acceleration performance. or if the combo is heavier, you also lose some performance and handling/ride quality. (more UNsprung weight = more work for the struts, more weight to dampen)
if they dont list the weight, I'd take my scales up and weigh them b4 purchase. Some of these aftermarket wheels and cheaper tires are REALLY heavy, check the specs on both,,,
