i will be getting speedline comp 2 in white like in this pic and was wondering if it would be better to get them in 14" rather than 15" for acceleration, also would there be enough traction with the 14" if i got cams aswell smileys/smiley4.gif

15's vts's come with 15's as standard and as dan said they are light wheels so acceleration wont be a problem

according to a site i went on the mk1 vts that came with 14 are 0.1seconds quicker to 60, i know its not much lol but i was just curious smileys/smiley4.gif

Vtr alloys are again very heavy and as said earlier the speedlines will be much lighter. My old 16" superlegs were alot lighter than my 14" vtr alloys. smileys/smiley2.gif

just look at standard vtrs, there wheels are 14's, i dont think anyone will have aftermarket 14's, bit small

15's mate, you'll struggle for traction with the 14'2 unless you run tractor tyres to keep the overall size the same!!
