Default 19" ABT SP-1 wheels on ar , they fit 100%

The Toyo proxies stick like glue around corners
225 vs 255, no additional 402 mods necessary, I used my current settings,
all around 20mm H&R Spacers.
Diameter is the same, weight loss about 10pounds per wheel, 65 Stock vs 55,8 ABT.
Fun factor increased by 400%...

I've had the 402 done before with 17" stock wheels and I was concerned I may have to change it again, but it was not the case.
Sorry for any mis-understanding.

None, because the overall Diameter is the same.
Even in the lowest riding level with 402mods.
And I pushed very hard during the test drive (50 miles).

Default Damn, knew I should have initially gone with 19"..

Now I will have to get rid of my twin spokes, use my current 18" for winter, and get some 19" for summer...8^)

They look awesome, BTW.

Default ....but look out for these "19"replicas" , they can ruin your investment.

Default strange.....my stock setup weighed around 54lbs....now 42lbs per wheel/tire.........

wheels that big need some lippage IMO...but as long as you dig em......that's cool!

Default ..that's what we've seen today on the scale,....

.. but it is not a real concern considering the total weight of the ar...at least not to me.
