I want it all: Looks, performance, reasonable cost, and to maintain my mpg.
My concern is that although braking performance and turning grip should improve thru the use of wider tires and larger rims, that my acceleration and the sensation of power will be reduced due to the additional inertia from these larger componenents.
What have the other big rim guys noticed as far as this aspect of performance?
The really lightweight rims, well I can't spend that sort of money on my GC. And truthfully there is a notable amount of weight gain from the larger tire itself and that it being further from the fulcrum it's much more relevant anyways.
The only rims I''ve found that meet my requirements for size, flushness, and cost are the S5:Fs although I'm not enamored w/ the aesthetics of them.
The size I would purchase would be:
F: 19" x 9.5" +25 w/ a 245/ 35 x 19" Hankook V12.
R: 20" x 10.5" +33 w/ a 295/ 35 x 20" Hankook V12
Input is appreciated.
