For starters, the stock 18" setup is HEAVIER than the 220 setup, but lighter than ZCP. However, ZCP wheels are wider, with suspension slightly stiffer, BUT same tire sizes; which setup is better?  Forged 18s lighter than 220s would be a better argument, but they still wouldn't be as good as 19s in every surface. Just look at every modern supercar, and none I remember has 18s ; there must be a reason.
Bottom line is for the OPs problem, he'd benefit the best with a forged set of 18s IMO. Good day gang. |
Read post #28 in this thread. If you have any evidence that 19s will outperform 18s I would be interested in seeing it.
