Advan GT Premium question.

I’m deciding to get the Advan Gt Premium. My question is I don’t want to lose horsepower. Will I lose HP if I go 20’s or should I get 19’s so I won’t lose HP. I’m going with lowering springs by Tanabe to fix the front from being higher than the back. Any advice would be appreciated thank you.

I don't know about losing horse power because of wheel diameter... you will however lose performance during acceleration.

That loss will be compensated by top end Speed performance.

One other thing u may want to keep in mind is the weight of wheels. You may have a larger running circumference... but the reduction in weight might work for you and gain u performance numbers

In fact since the ADVAN GT'S are lighter them the OEM BBS, it will actually improve your acceleration.
