Personally, my seventeenies are there for looks first and foremost. I believe that they have decreased my acceleration, but i feel an increase in cornering grip and have found an increase in corner speed as a result. My stock rims were 14" with Yokohama A509's, 195/55/14.
My spare 17" without tyre weighs in at 9kg. I'll measure up a 14" steelie, a 14" steelie with ORIGINAL Michelin tyre, a stock 14" 'mag' with tyre, my space saver, and a 17" with tyre.
