      It has a drastically higher effect than adding the same amount of mass to the vehicle because it is rotating mass. It will hurt gas mileage, acceleration etc., but it's all due to increased moment of inertia.

                    Just do it all at once. They really shouldn't sell head gaskets alone, should be mandatory to come with water pump and timing belt lol.

                      That's how much my 17x8 Works weighed, and 3lbs heavier than my 17x7.5" SSR Comps.

                                Try these men:
                                http://www.alliedwheel.com/wheel.php?name=Snow%20Wheel

                                Also if you call tirerack they can source wheels better than most. They will find you 16x9 steelies.

                                I want wheels so bad, I hate but love my bottlecaps. But if it wont pass smog I can't spend a dollar on anything else.
