Awesome wheels, Eddie and Ranger. Do you notice any decrease in performance, MPG, and ride quality for those of you who have rims > 17''? And anybody have any experience with Sport Edition rims?

At least no decrease on performance that i can feel, obviously the handling is better.... a tad harder but not to worry

Only have one picture so far but here it is:

M45 Sport Wheels (19x8.5)
Tires: Bridgestone Potenzas 245/40/19
BTW we literally put the rims on right there so the car was just put back down on the ground so the springs did not have a chance to settle back down. Will post up lots more pics when I take them though.

you can definitely tell that there is a difference with stock 16s that we have (me and ranger) vs. the larger 19 and 20 inch wheels. your 18s are probably close to the same weight as stock but ours are somewhat heavier and do take a harder acceleration to get to the same speed as quick as before.

I have a question. I have been looking at alot of rims lately and have seen some nice ones from Forigato. Only thing is I havent seen anyone on these boards with any nor do i see any prices on all the websites i have searched ,so I guess they might be a little pricey but are they worth the extra cost?
I like these esp with a red lip

Yes, the wheels are very high, but on the other hand u don't have to worry about seeing anyone riding around with the same rims u have... what size are u looking for? but these rims are 3 piece so be looking to spend atleast in the $4000 range....
