^^ Well in that case you wana buy my 17"s , it really is the weight though, because my mpg is much worse both city and highway, plus the increased diameter actaully lowers the RPM due to a slight gearing change which should thereotically help gas mileage, unless it is incredibly substantial.
You gotta get some mean ol' brembo's like these... Brembo 14" GT Rotors with 4p calipers, it stops good mmmkay.
I still laugh when I see idiots driving escalades with 20's or 24's or 26's with STOCK BRAKES. If Motor Trend or a similar mag were to do a test on what just adding those ghetto **** rims do to the car you'd be surprised. This is just a guess, but from what I've researched in the past, the stock braking of one of those SUV's would probably go from 70-0 in 165 feet to something like 250+ feet just b/c of those wheels. I wouldn't really be able to tell the diff in accel but it'd be affected quite significantly too.
