Already running 17's.

Did some thinking the other day, if a tree falls in the woods and no one is around, does it make a sound kind of thinking;

Your acceleration G is lower with bigger wheels, but the gear runs longer. So you end up in your better accelerating gears for longer but they're slightly less effective. So the does that make you car faster or slower :think:

hmmm, if they are AEM then i think they sell the rotors (i bloody hope so :lol: )

otherwise these kind of thing are made to be replaced. as long as you get rotors that match the bell you should be ok.

You could easily work that out :)

I'm not a fan of metaphysics/bundle theory type things though :lol: too many people in darkened rooms with turtlenecks trying to be deep.
