Yes Nathans 18" Wheels are nice, but even he will tell you they aren't comfortable with the slim rubber on them, those wheels on the first picture where my German Oxigin 1's, a very difficult wheel to buy in the UK, looked great, but as I said

Lighter wheels will allow your suspension to work better. Pay attention to weight on your next purchase.

True, but the tires touch the road. I am sure he could find more comfortable tires; but not everyone has the money to experiment, or make mistakes.
