not much diff lah.. taiwan rims are also light... 1 set of jap rim = to the cost of 3 set taiwan rim... i rather change to 3x then stick to 1... very sian after looking for quite sometime...

if i'm correct, the new city can take 17 inch without compromise the speedometer..

even if change to bigger rims, 17" original japanese rims should still be lighter than 16" stock rims, isn't it?
i'm planning to change my stock 16" to 17" japanese rims when i get my car

Try this tire size calculator..
From 16 to 17" rims,tire size got to be 215/40 with some slight difference in the speedo reading.

the normal taiwanese replica rims can never be lighter than japanese rims.. the 1 piece jap forged rims are light n strong, the usual replica taiwanese rims are casted they tend to be heavier n not as strong, more prone to warp. even the forged maglines made in taiwan are not that light compared to their japan friends..

side note: be it 16" or 17" the compromising on speedo part is usually the tyre size that determines the difference.

my question abt is the new city can fr 17" is if fitted 17" rims and lower the car will the tyres rub the fenders when doing full lock of steering wheel
