I put some new SSR Integrals on my car a few weeks ago, but haven't had time to write a review. So far I love them. They are about 4lbs lighter than the old 16" wheels with tires mounted. (37 v. 41) This may not sound like much, but it makes a discernable difference. I had felt like the big sidewalls were the limiting factor in my car's handling and my driving ability. 17" wheels were the obvious upgrade. I went with the SSR's because they're semi solid forged and there is the obvious weight savings. Also, the roads around here are ridden with potholes. The car feels peppier overall, and the handling is greatly improved with the wider tires and smaller sidewall. It's amazing, I can REALLY feel the car's natural balance now. I can also get wheel spin going into 2nd. I don't know if it's due to the lighter wheels, or different tires. The looks are OK. I would have preferred the GT1's, but these were in my budget plus they look better than 16's.
