19" Advanti w/Conti Extreme Contact DW


Replaced stock 18s with 19" Advanti HY Hybris and Conti Extreme Contact DW. Combo saved almost 5 lbs. of un-sprung weight at each corner. Ride is still good and great grip.

I didn't get to weigh just the rims as the wheel/tire combo came mounted and balanced from TireRack.

Unsprung weight makes such a huge difference in everything, acceleration, road feel, handling etc. so I'm sure the car feels a lot more nimble. Any plans to drop it?

Not at the moment. I'm not a "super-low" fan, but may drop it a bit at some point.

Took the center caps off of the OE wheels, wrapped the caps with a graphite black vinyl wrap, and snapped them into the Advantis.
