I was looking at the Insight rims, both the stock alloys and spares. They are asking a high prices for them though, when the one I have cost only $20 a piece, and 1 came with the car
One thing I stall at is running a 5" wide tire on a 5.5" rim. It seems to me like the tread would already be in a position to wear more on the outside. This would be magnified with the RE92s.
Great info in that spreadsheet, Ecky! Thanks a bunch
Chrysler Kid, I would love to run the VX wheels, but they are 13s. Which means less tire selection, and not Re92s.
Samwichse, can you explain why Chrysler Kid is incorrect in his posting that acceleration is not linear?
I had an idea on the way home last night. Being in the classic truck world for a while, I have seen people take the stock 15x8 steel wheels and add on to them to make them 15x10 and even 15x12. To put this in the Eco-perspective, why not take my Aluminum MX-3 wheels and have them modified skinnier, to 14x4 or so? I know aluminum can be welded and know welders who might could make this happen.
Thoughts?
