arielscar Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 As I search through the web sellers of tires and wheels (e.g., Tire Rack) I wonder whether I should choose a lightweight wheel (19-20 lbs) or a heavier one (24-27 ils.). This car is used mainly for highway cruising and I've selected Bridgestone Potenza RE960AS Pole Position tires; my gut tells me I should pick the heavier wheels, but I really don't know. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
92Lex Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 Wheel weight is dependant on what you're expecting from your car. I prefer lighter wheels because I actually feel the performance gain and it's not just in my head. Bridestone Pole Positions are a perfect choice, if you're going for an all out performance tire. The tread wear on these tires isn't all that great but traction is always going to be there. They're great tires but I can no longer afford them. LOL My budget has decreased therefore I'm currently sporting Kumho Exsta ASX. I think that they are an all around great handling tire and are definitely a good run for the money.
