thats not going to do ####, maybe if you have stupid blue lights and your fog light upgrade and hmm probably a spoiler upgrade you may think it will help performance

all im saying is that i want to know how big the rims can get, so i can possibly figure out what kind of lightweight wheel with a certain performance tire at a certain size can help my car out

dick

if you want to give someone a hard time find one of those kids on these forums that ask that kind of question like "should i get dual exhaust?"

Let's all calm down. If you don't have an answer or a productive and informative response then don't say anything at all. If someone wants to put big rims on THEIR tC that happen to a bit heavy it is THEIR right!

ooooh so you like the dual exhaust yet if offers no improvement on performance whatsoever...it is merely for looks

Here's the fundamental problem: There are no lightweight wheels in 18 or 19 inch sizes. With the current technology, 17 is the practical limit for reasonably lightweight wheels. 18's might get there in another year. It will be quite some time before they figure out how to make a 19" wheel both light and strong. I suspect we'll all be on tweels before then (and I bet they're WAY lighter by the time they get to production).

So, if you want to run big wheels, you can't have acceleration or compliance. You get bling. If you want to go fast, especially over less than perfectly flat surfaces, then you should consider smaller diameter wheels. They are lighter, and offer a much better range of choices for rubber. That's the long and short of it.
