If you just want lighter wheels get the 16's

16's are ideal for accelerating and in the corners, 15's and a bit too small, and 17's a bit too big

16 inch rotas spontaneously combust at a wheelspeed of 65 miles an hour. leaving your car careening uncontroably down the highway leading you directly into the concreet divider only to flip over it into 4 lanes of oncoming rush hour traffic. it all stems from somthing like a bad non ceramic capacitor on the main circut board grounding out from the force of the rotation igniting the magnesium in the cast. i hear you can fix it with potato sticks

damnit i hate it when they oversimplify things like that. all you need is a flux capacitor.
