I think I have decided to do 15s with a small drop to fill out the wheel well

ya i think 15's would be a better option if thats what u want, most people think bigger rims = better, which is probably true for looks, but if u want to take it to the track for w/e reason, ull be a little better off

18s will fit with a low pro but 17s are better in my opinion...maybe the tires on the 16s were too big...i would deff switch to 17s 15s are too small

have 17's that i roll on in the summer and it really effects acceleration. thats why i'm switching to lightweight 15's. lightweight wheels man, one of the biggest speed secrets.
besides imo the huge wheel thing is getting played out i think. some cars look like those old wagons in westerns.

True to the wheel weights being the key but 15's on a nice car look totally busted.

i know my seventeens look great. much better than the 15's that are on the way.
but its like drivin around with two line backers in the back seat. any one reading this should get whatever size you want. just consider the weight as a real issue. i weighed my 17's the other day and they weigh 45.5 lbs a piece. HOLY CRAP>
