i'm on 19's right now.. and it's SOO heavy and performance sucks, and the vibrations are too rough. So.. should i go back to 17's? or 18's? and if so.. which wheel?

I'm looking for something lightweight. the lighter the better, but anything under 20lbs would be decent.

my current wheels:



So i'm thinking something like these.

I like the Enkei RSV but I am not sure how they would look on silver.

Raze's in 17's or 18's would look good. But with the M3 front bumper...18's

i think the Rota SVN look nice. havent seen many tc's with ones like that. selling ur rims by chance?

dieselstation

i MIGHT. but it has some curbs and dings.

i say either the Rota's Real Lite or Raze...haha you're helping make my decision too! well im not threadjacking but i plan to downgrade to 17's...

17's...less stress on your suspension

the enkei and raze wheels look good.

dieselstation let me first point out that yours is not only the first and only body kit I've ever seen that's not hideous, it's also the first and only body kit I've ever seen that I actually kind of like! Nice work!
I would recommend going w/ 17s because rolling resistance is less and you'll get better acceleration in the 10-40mph range, which is where we do most of our driving. I think for light weight that's not too expensive, go with Enkei RPF1's:

Notice that in a 17x8 with a 35mm offset (what you want), 5x100 bolt (that's us!) only weighs 15.6 lbs. Nice.
Also, Motegi tracklites are dope:

They might not have all the right sizes available, you have to call, but they are really light weight.
The only problem w/ 17s is you need a lot of drop to make them look good. 18s fill the wells a little better.

I'ld liek the Rota Real Lite. Go for 17s...I prefer the smoother ride over the negligible performance gain of 18s

had the fakes, now get the real ones.

they should fit pretty nice as well.

i would say 18s . and go Enkei RSV ! i think 17s look too small and i beleive if someone is going to have rims they should upgrade at least one size bigger than stock !

909, those lm's are dirty indeed, but how could you justify paying 2 grand for a set of 7 inch wide wheels? couldn't do it. But I like to look!
Here's some phatty 18's:
