red03minis,

the 18" ride is much more than i expected; i lost a lot of ride comfort. i went back to 17" instead.

the 18"s are one of the lightest cast rims around (17.5 lbs). including the parada spec 2's, the tire and rim combo would weigh less than 40 lbs each corner (17.5 + 21.9). you will definitely feel the extra power after installing these rims. they are less than 3 month old. three of the tires have less than 3K miles on them with the fourth having only 10 miles because it is brand new (suffered a nail in the sidewall).

i spent $1700 3 months ago. http://www.wheelmax.com is currently selling combos for $1450 with cheaper tires.

check out the 5zigen FN-01RC at:

let me know if you have any more questions.
