    Maas wheels.

    I have found a great deal on a set of chrome rims made by Maas.Its the style M52 or maybe the style M53.But for 22X9.5" rims with tires mounted and balanced is $1750 including tax.
    Does anyone have thses rims?Please take at look at there site and let me know what yall think.
    www.maaswheels.com either style M52 or M53.

    Do they come in a 5x115 bolt pattern? I don't see how the M53 style would work since it's designed for a six bolt pattern.

    The M53 is nice, but personally I like the M54 better. Have you considered that one and if so is there a difference in price?

    does anyone take the weight of aftermarket wheels into consideration, as far as affecting performance too much etc...just wondering cause i have to see anyone ask about wheels weight around here, not knocking anyone in any way, just curious, as to oem wheel weight, from the SE up to r/t, so that it can be compared against the aftermarket wheel weight, and u know just how much more unsprung weight u are adding and or rotational mass as well..

    thanks..

    Thank You Haz

    It has been discussed quite a bit on other threads. For instance............

    Effect of Tire/Wheel Weight on 1/4 Mile Times

    Weight of Foose Nitrous?

    Those are two of mine. Do a search and you will find many more.

    Shane,
    The best tire size and most commonly used is 265/35-22. This size does a number of things well:

    1. Reasonably low profile while maintaining comfortable ride quality and improving handling.

    2. Keeps your speedometer and final drive ratio very close (within 3%) to stock.

    3. Gives the right amount of extra width without causing clearance/rubbing problems.

    4. It's a common size now and easy to find and get good deals on.
