the tires are nexum 35's, not quite the quality i would prefer, but the guy threw them in really cheap with the deal. Probably upgrade later...

yea the ride seems great to me.. i kinda prefer it a little more stiff (at least thats what she said..! hahaha )

If you need All-Seasons I recommend Dunlop Sport Signatures, they really grip well on dry and don't give up much in the rain and even a couple inches of snow.

The stock 17s are something like 23lbs, the 18s are about 25. My 20s are about 1.5lbs heavier than stock 17s and close to the 18s in weight.

Effects of Upsized Wheels and Tires Tested


not entirely accurate. since wheel weight varies my re30's 19x10 and 19x11 are lighter than stock, wider than stock which means more rubber on the road. teh whole set with lugs was 81lbs. they might weigh the same with tires mounted im gonna look into that.

anyway a work wheel in the same size will be heaver than stock.

so it depends on the wheel. cant really go off of generic wheel weights and sizes.
