GUys i need to know from experience if going from stock rs rims whichs is 15" size to 17" size rims if theres a performance difference..Are you losing accelaration. due to the size? which on e would be faster out of the 2 different size rims.. ofcourse thicker as well...

im assuming 0-60 will be affected by it.. obviously bigger rims will be a bit heavier due to thickness as well..i was thinkin of putting a lipped rims rear wheel thicker on the back butnormal on the front..hmmmmm i wonder..

There are all kinds of variables that will determine whether a certain wheel will be slower or faster than another. But as a general rule of thumb, the bigger the rim, the slower you'll go.
