That's right !!!
You have to spend for better wheels if you don't want to increse weight. 15 usually weight 15lbs 17 often weight 23 lbs... that's a big difference.... I got 17 that weight 15 or 16 lbs, to keep the same performance, There are a few wheels that are lightweight, so you won't loose anything. On the other hand, take those light weight wheels in 15, and you get 10 lbs wheels, then you gain performance !!! I think it's about 1 lbs extra if you get 1 inch wider wheel, in 17...that why I have 16lbs whell instead of 15....17x8 vs 17x7... |

right now I'm going for show not go, so 17s are good for me. Later down the line when i get some money and my friends have time to help me for a couple days i'll do a swap to a 3sgte but I'll buy some racing rims for that to go to the drag strip. but for now i'll b watching.

My feelings on wheel size is the bigger the better! How many supercars do you see with 15" wheels? None!
Thats the biggest prob with my celica at the moment I think, the stock 15's make the car look like it is weak. Big rims = Big, Tough looking car. |
