I must admit, there are many other wheels that I think can look better (CSL, BBS CH, etc) but they're heavy in comparison. IMO wheels should be a 50% looks, 50% performance upgrade. I only wish they made a 9.0 et38 front RGR.

Tire choice should drive wheel selection. What tire sizes you wanna run?

Still undecided, but something around 245/255 F/R. The goal being reduce understeer without unneeded tire width.

Awesome pics. Any tire, wheel, and suspension specs?



Also, do you guys notice a performance (acceleration and handling agility) increase with the lighter wheels?

The car feels noticeably better, even when going from light 19s to light 18s. I regret not switching sooner-- there's very few things you can do that improve ride, handling, braking, and acceleration, all while costing less

Soon I have to strap on the boat anchors, though (OE18s with snow tires). Oh well, it'll make the summers feel great all over again come spring

I agree, but the 19's don't look as bad.
