You must be a repeat offender huh



Big wheels are a fad, like the hellaflush scene... you get over it quick once you realize those cars never, ever see the track, just the parking lot. For a car that's meant to be driven, I cannot understand why you would advocate reducing ride quality, performance, durability and response for "looks". Not to mention your taste will change and there goes all your invested cash.

Get some 18" wheels to race/HPDE with and the tire price goes down.

repeat offender.....absolutely. and proud.

plenty dudes track cars lrg wheels. better to run small?? a fact and a given. your opinion is yours and whoever shares it with you. chill. as much as I love cars we got a lotta tools on the scene, and I've met em'. guess the two go hand and hand. I'll refrain from joining the club.

while I'd certainly never go that route being a true car guy I appreciate all different kinds of trends happening on the enthusiast scene, but this is one that puzzles me to some extent. interesting none the less. back on topic.

The lightest possible rims I can find from a reputable manufacturer that fits the car without adapters. -for performance- looks cooler than -for looks- imo.
