Default IFORGED AEROS 18 & 19 or 19 & 20 ???

Hey Guys

I'm having a big dilema on deciding if I want to go with IFORGED aeros in 19 and 20 or 18 and 19. Does anyone have any input on which would be better to go with?

This would be going on a boosted 600RWHP Z06.

Any pictures would be appriciated

let me know what you think

thanks

i love your car, but are you running 18's and 20's, or is it just the angle of the pic?

Neither 19s or 20s on the rear will suffice for traction concerns. Wide, sticky tires on 18s "might" get you some traction at that hp level.

You need to choose what aspect to compromise on., the look, or the grip.

Many high hp folks that track their cars have 2 setups...one set for track performance, one for street bling.

If you want the best of both worlds, but can only have one setup, drag radials or R compound tires on 18s is what you should end up buying.
