because their 17x8 OZ Superleggera and they weight 17 lbs. =] look good or go fast? how about both.

 

if it were me i would do 18s with 2 17s for the track...but i will add the superleggera is my favorite wheel

 

looks like you got a bit of camber in the rears there mang.

 

i kept bending 18s, and didn't want to keep up with repairing them. i knwo the 17 look a little funny, but its growing on me.

note: pictures were before alignment.

another side note: i feel pickup in lower end a lot better. moves way more 'freely' on the highway.

 

Get a 16".....its just better all around...lighter....more tire for better ride..still a low sidewall...

 

16s for the track...

plus i wanted to retain SOMEWHAT of a good appearance on the car.

 

With the 17" SSR comps I had (14lbs) the car was alot easier to drive. That heavy front end feeling was gone.
They look good.

 

I like your brake set-up more than the wheels. Looks alright.

 

I felt a good difference when down grading to my 18" SSR's. But your new wheels look really good.

 

thanks guys, the car has a layer of pollen and i had just put the wheels on. a little wax and armor all and theyll shine nice. i always loved the look of the superleggeras. wish i coulda went 18s, but the fact that they dont make them anymore combined with rim damage steered me away.

i feel more response on turns too, dont know if i added that.

 

I have 17" SSR Comps on mine and I can tell you they help with acceleation, braking and the corners and there is no doubt about it.

 

I'm crossing my fingers for the day tirerack restocks SSR Comps =(

 

I've always liked the Superleggera's and think they look great on your car. I didn't realize that they stopped making them.

Do you know what the difference is between the Superleggera's and the Ultraleggeras? Should I also round up some Superleggera's before they dry up or are the Ultraleggera's comparable?

 

i bought 5 supers from tirerack this week =]

the ultras are simply diff design, same weight, i was thinkin about getting them, but they had a polish finish with thinner spokes that go to the edge, i went with the classier look.

 

I run on 17's, too many potholes and too much road construction around here.
Bent my share of wheels and seen too many cars running three rims and a spare.
