I cant tell the difference between the CE-28N or the LE-28N's....
I seem to like the LE's more but then I think they are the same and I'm just making things up in my head.
What's the difference? and Do they weight the same amount?

Freak,
How does your car perform?? After reading that I am almost positive I will not be getting the j8's.... It's just too heavy, now having a 19" rim that is way lighter then the stock rim is also a bad idea wouldnt it be?
Youll probably always be going a little faster then what your speedometer says.

That info mostly doesn't apply to us but to people who own trucks. If you buy 18s or 19s and keep stock overal diameter you will not have problem. I've had 19s on the cars I've owned before and I couldn't tell that much of a difference in ride. If you go with big heavy chrome wheels, that's one thing. If you go with a tuner wheel I don't see a problem with that.

So would be getting the 19" Racing Harts J8's be a bad idea or no?
If not I will prob get the Volk CE28 or the LE28's. Which I think both run at less then 20 lbs where I've heard the j8's are prob like 24-26 but nobody has told me yet.

If you are running on the bleeding edge on what the car is capable of, sure 18' and 19' going to hurt performance. Running a lightweight 18 or 19' on an evo is not the end of the world.
However you will loose some performance in the de/acceleration department, but not that much.

I agree for the most part with this. I bet I could run the same 1/4 times with my stock rims and with my 19's

sure it applies to us. (cars) i would think even more than trucks because more people put bigger wheels on cars. the biggest factors i see from the article are the unspring weight and its harder on the brakes.

i would take that bet if your 19s are the same weight as the stock 17s.
