quick Q

Will putting 17-18" chromes on my 1999 es300 have significant negative effects on the performance of my car? I ask because i know these wheels are much heavier than oem. Thanks

Heavy

Having a significantly heavier wheel will slow acceleration and steering response. If you drive aggressively like I do you will notice. If you drive normally you will probably not notice.
