Thanks. Well I had an 02 before and there wasn't much of a difference, the r18 and the hybrid didn't feel that different when I test drove them, but I wasn't able to get them both up to the speeds that I normally drive. But now that I have had the hybrid and put these wheels on it I have gotten it up to 95mph pretty quick(with the original wheels I didn't feel like it handles so well).

I don't mind spending the money on the Mugens, if it means that it looks and handles better and I'm getting good gas mileage. But since I already have 18" tires I was thinking that I would switch for the same size and save some money.
