    Get lighter rims.

    How heavy are the rims anyway? Enkei's are normally pretty light.

    What tyre size are you using?

    If you use a considerably low profile tyre, the overall diameter wouldn't be much different from the stock 16" or 17" diameter (the difference between OEM 16" and 17" is only about 0.36&#37.

    Perhaps ur engine needs a good service, new oil and a clean air filter can make a huge difference

    What is your new tyre size? How heavy is the new 18" rim+tyre combo?

    Haha,

    Another sucker who believes the final Jtune products for the euro exists.

    I can tell you they do not exist, as I would have them after paying just under $4,500 for them November 2007.

    I have now been running the prototype, along with it's many faults, ( so that James could have a demo car in Brisbane) for almost 5 months now.

    Was supposed to have been replaced early January (after 5-6 weeks)then...............March.................sti ll friggin nothin!

    Hmm........I can feel a lawsuit coming on......

    Jtune extreme for the euro does not exist.....apparently..
