Message	17" wheel. I've also worked on a lot of cars that "upgraded" wheels and said they rode like crap after. It's harder for the suspension to control the bound and rebound of that increased mass. The issue is the same with tires too. Some tires (Federal 595RSR) are just damn heavy and on anything but a smooth track they're terrible. -Dan "Capitalization is the difference between helping your Uncle Jack off a horse, and helping your uncle jack off a horse."
