15x10's w/ 315's help traction too, doesn't mean you're not going to break an axle. Maybe you spin less cuz the wheel weighs more which means it's harder to move - like trying to do a burnout w/ a steamroller
I would like to see comparison weight sheets of ex:
20" three piece forgeline to
18" FR500
I'd bet you would be surprised
The 20" wheels I have on the rear are lighter than ANY 18" wheel that Ford offers. (Ive had them all) Lighter than Bullett,Cobra R,Fr500 or Saleen. The only wheel that is comparable in weight is the Steeda Ultralight. Actual rolling diameter (wheel/tire) is EXACTLY the same as someone rolling with 285/35/18s.
As far as breaking axles....If you have a fully built rear end, wheel/tire size is a non issue.
- but im talking about wheels beyond your specific applicability. As any wheel debate should
There are a TON of 20" wheels that are light weight and very strong, that would make a great application on many vehicles. I think you are just generalizing, because 90% of the pictures on the internet of 20" wheels on mustangs are ghetto ass "flea market blingers." Which....does completly look like ass, and gives them a bad name all together.
i think the 22" rims on the 3d carbon are some of the best looking rims on a s197
although i wouldnt want them as a daily driver as i would imagine that they might be a bit rough on ride quality.
