QUOTE(yngwie @ Sep 21 2010, 07:40 PM) 17" with profile 45 wheels sure looks nice on waja but the drawback will be the decreased acceleration, increased fc(if we care much) and even weaker brake system. getting a lighter set of wheels might help wah! thanks for the explanation.but the larger diameter and tyre width(contact) will caused the engine and brake to work harder and slower speedometer reading. not to mentioned the needs for suitable and reliable absorber set. 16" seems to be the better option. even if less choice of tyre available, they still cost cheaper than the equivalent 17" while provide a quite accurate speedometer reading and better compromise on brake and engine power. just my 2c  im not a spped junkie but Thanks for the explaination regarding " decreased acceleration, increased fc(if we care much) and even weaker brake system" im using the stock 16inch rims now. buying another 16 wont be that great la. perhaps i should consider  i have three options actually. 1. Taiwan rims = possible now (in budget) RM2000 or save2 more money for 2. Quality and light 17inch rims = RM3500+? 3. Quality and light rims 16inch = RM? what do you guys think? |
