STOCK ITR, STOCK SUSPENSION....

1. stock 15" wheels with Falken Azenis (205/50 15)

2. aftermarket 17" (21 lbs each) with Kumho Ecsta 711's (215/40 17)

and WHY???


BTW, i know i posted a similar topic last week, but i never got a definitive answer.

 

You need to be more specific about track vehicle and conditions. I know for a fact 15" rims will yeild more performance because of rotaional size and mass.

 

The 15" package you listed will laugh at the other.

 

the 15's hands down.... the azenis alone will own the kumhos with no other factors considered

 

What they said. Bling has no place on the track, stick with the 15s. Just out of curiousity, do you understand the benefits of a lower rotational mass with the 15s over the 17s?

 

if it's for the track then why not something better than the azenis all together like 15" RA1 or something like that?

George, that is the shortest post I have ever seen from you I think?

But the "yup" does sum it up!

15X7 over the stock I perfer and run now!

 

Let's see.

You're comparing one setup, with wheels that are much lighter in weight and tires that are much stickier, with another setup whose only bragging point is 10 mm more treadwidth.

No contest.
