So what was your solution for this problem? Or what would be the solution in general? Buy some (for example) BBS RC or RK in 16x7 or 16x7,5 and put some 215/50 tires on them? Okay, they would be a bit wider but they also would be about 4lbs lighter than my stock rims. We donīt get Mugen, Spoon, Volk,....rims over here. I mean we could get them but they would cost us an arm and a leg. And Iīll keep my engine stock (except the Type-S intake and a K&N drop-in filter) so I canīt compensate the "powerloss" this way.
Thanx in advance.
