I ordered a set of 16" CE28N, just 11lbs. If I want more rubber just put a wider tire.

I think this combination is better than the CE28N 17" which is heavier. THe result better aceleration and better braking.

Handling almost the same if you want more just drop the car 1"

How wide are the 16" CE28N's? What are the widest tires you can put on them?

The CE28N:

Front are 16x7 48ET
Rear are 16x8 49ET

I think that you can run 245 in front and 255 rear

Exactly. Why spend money on something that will not add performance?

Go with a TURBO.

Matt, you're not tracking the car right? Go with 17s. I suggested the same to Alex but stay away from bronze

I like the idea of 18 in the rear, but 17 up front!
