Hi, I have a 18 Golf SE and put on 18 BBS CO’s with Conti 235-40-18 on that I had from my 10 GTI that I sold after 9 years. The wheels are 25 lbs plus 22 for tires is 47 lbs setup. I love the look and handling but roads here suck.
I’m considering selling my 18’s and putting on either 17’s or oe size 16 for more comfortable ride and lighter setup. 16’s I’m looking at are OZ ultras 16x7 at 14.8 lbs and getting either 225x50 or 215/55 16’s. This setup is 35-36 lbs. My car is stock but may go stg1 Ecu in future. I want a comfortable ride but good performance, no track days.
Are 16’s just too small so go with 17’s. 17 setup would be either OZ’s, Enkie, or Koning with 235/45/17 and closer to 40 lbs.
