Just so you know, I paid a lot less for my Volks with Yokohama AVDAN Sport tires.
So what you are getting is not a deal....

so prof, what kind of wheels are they? size/offset? the wrong offsets would make even the most beautiful wheels look bad on your car.
and what school are you a professor at?

20s are fine...I've ran em without any issues. You just have to choose the right offsets and tire sizes. That's it. My suspension components never suffered. My acceleration didn't suffer as much as I would have thought....and to be honest, what you loose in acceleration, you make up a little for in taction.
here's my ride on 20" axis mod se7ens. No body kit either....

In order to make a fair comparison, you would need to downgrade to the same rims. You can buy 19in monza(no such thing) that weigh 28lbs a piece and switch to 20in GTC's that weigh 2olbs. It depends on what type of rims you go with.
