Nice shoes but no punishment in performance?

I always see Nice rims on cars, but they all sacrifice performance. And then I see cars with Ugly shoes, but it does well with performance

I am looking at the HRE C20's and the IForged Drifts, is there a gain in performance, atleast no loss in performance with these wheels?

What is the MSRP on these rims as well? (Iforged)

a good way to judge if the wheels will improve performance is the weight of the wheel. you generally want ur wheels to be at or less than 25lbs/wheel. also, the width of the wheel will help with traction depending on the tires.

+1.

Performance = 1PC Forged. Check our Fiske, BBS (Forged), Neez, Volk, MORR, RAC, etc.

3PC wheels are not performance wheels.
