Rims!

Post by blazesxt » Thu Feb 09, 2006 8:59 pm

I had my eye on picking up a set of Falken Hanabi's (bronze) . My question is should i go with them in 18" or buy them in 17"? 18"s with tires will run about $800. Does anyone know the weight off hand of stock SRT4 rims? I wanna see the difference in weight between the two. 18" hanabis are 19lbs each.

I believe the srt are in the high 19's if not low 20's. I would go 17" between the 2 because you can have a little taller side wall to protect the rim plus give you a better ride.

i run 215 on my 17 and the ride isnt too bad. The bundle has the rims with 215/35s. What do think about that size?

I would go wit the 17's for the reasons mentioned above, plus they will be lighter and the tires will be cheaper
