Rim Questions?

I want to mod my Max....but since the stock 15" are the best wheels to have , performance wise( less weight, both in the wheel and unsprung) I wanted to know if

A: The '97+ SE 5-spokes are heavier than the 15" and

B: Are there any lightweight 16"+ rims that look cool and weigh less (or same) as the 15" sawblades.

And C : Have any of yall who have 18"+ rims felt your car to be slower than with stock rims?

Thanks for your responses

look into 16" SSR competitions those are light as hell and look good.


18" rims if you go right to them from 15' you will feel a big difference off the line, way more rotational mass
