Wider the wheel, harder it is to make U-turns or anything to do with turning. Stability + handling in straight line- changing lanes driving feels sticky.

Actually I have, some guy makes supposedly better ones that are much brighter and have more LEDs.
Still deciding if I actually want one though, finishing these wheels is my priority.

My front wheels are going to be 18x10, just with an aggressive offset (+4)

I know the only other person that makes anything similar to the Lebren is me... Yes, it is brighter, yes it has more LED's... Never exactly said it was better (nor have I compared). I don't make it to sell... You did ask me how much it is to make one, and I gave you my price (which is BEYOND reasonable). You turned it down saying you can't afford it

Yeah, I liked the picture you sent me. I would just rather finish my wheels right now. I wanted the Lebren before I got the works.
