    yeah i'm pretty sure i'll go with the 17s just for the weight savings alone-less work on the brakes.

    not sure of the rubber yet, something that will last as long as possible and still give me nice grip. falkens maybe? i dunno.

    I don't like em.

    There are just too many spokes for me. Why not just make a solid wheel?

    i especcially don't care for the ultra-leggaras.

    and a side note, the superleggaras area royal bitch to clean!

    Ultraleggaras are really nice. In a way I kind of wish I had held off for a set of those, but I guess I'll live.
