    I think the final question, instead of “Does more money = more better” because 99% that answer will be yes, the question should be “Is more money worth it”

    • @brandonmiller9155

      I’d believe in doing the best of both. So cheap rims and expensive tires. Because the rims matter a lot less than the tires in terms of performance. 4 pounds isn’t that much of a difference when you’re running a stiffer/lower set up, whereas if you max out your usable grip you’re going to have a much more noticeable improvement

      Brandon Miller but at the same time, if they hit a big pothole or something, the better wheels (and probably the OEM wheels) MIGHT bend, whereas the cheaper ones will definitely bend and could crack. So not only are the more better ones safer, but if you live in a hole-y area, then you could end up saving money over the years.

The hypergrams are the lightest @ 16.33lbs for 17x8s. TSW Bathursts are 17lbs, nothing else compares that I've found. The Konigs are around 220, the Bathursts around 330.

Also, they kinda know what they are doing and used “appropriate” parts installed the right way. We can not expect it from everyone diy-ing it in their driveway.

    Honestly, I'm a budget man. I can't spend more on tires and wheels than I did the entire car. Now, I have spent way more on wheels, tires and suspension all together.. But, I have the XXR 530/18's(Gold) in a 33 offset 7.5" wide(w/o rolling any fenders) and Nitto NeoGen 225/40R18 high performance all seasons.('04 VW Jetta GL) cost=$1000+ accompanied with KSport Kontrol Pros fully adjustable coilover kit(another $1000+) I honestly can't tell you how happy I am with the results. I've since added several other chassis and suspension, upgraded rotors and pads, to put about $3200+ worth of handling and stopping power to this set up in moderate totals. Doing all my own wrenching, I might add. It has transformed this car and I would do it all over again for the value, performance versus costs, over and over again. I shot for midgrades and I LOVE IT!!

    Had a set of XXR's on an old car. Got into an accident where I went airborne, while going backwards, over a ditch. (Long story short I had over corrected, spun 180° and couldn't get stopped before going over the ditch). When I got the car to my shop and removed the wheels to check them on the tire balancer, none of them were bent or cracked nor had any hops in them. They were 17x7.5 with 205/50 tires. Sure cheaper wheels aren't as desirable as more high end wheels, but for a set of $500-$600 wheels they held up track days, every day use and even an accident where wheels typically would've been damaged. I'm not saying everyone should go buy a set of XXR's but if you're trying to customize your car on a budget and need a different wheel set up than what you have, I wouldn't hesitate to run a set of XXR'S. You can always upgrade to those expensive authentic wheels down the road.

    One going for the lower cost is much better if you're an aggressive driver because as an aggressive driver you have to change your tires more often and you can do that a 4 to 1 ratio. And there has to be a huge difference in order to make the higher false palatable. Second the glaring problems with your test is the differing suspensions so what you need to do is change the wheels and tires out on each car. Which car gets the run with the expensive and or cheap.

    I work with a lot of wheels and tires, YES they do make a difference. Tires and wheels are a perfect example of "you get what you pay for" and tires especially, all tires are not created equal! Some could be out of round which means during manufacturing they didn't perfectly round off the tire which means you can get a LOT of bouncing. There is nothing you can do about that. Some good tires around about 1,000 and up.

    We do stopping tests using precision GPS. You can look at a graph of the speed to see exactly where they were at 60mph, then 0mph and plot the 2 coordinates on google earth. Take a measurement between them and boom, you got stopping distance. You can also plot another excel sheet column with a derivative to get acceleration or in this case negative acceleration.
