I was looking for the weights for these vossen wheels in 20" for a customer who has an Audi S5 and google brought me to this page. Althought the wheels do look good excessive weight does play an important factor in how your car handles. Because you've added additional weight beyond the springs your acceleration and handling is affected in a negative way. Your braking is also affected because the brakes have to work harder to slow you down. The best comparison would be if you were jogging in work boots.

While this may true, if someone is putting 20" Vossens on, I would assume that the car is mainly a DD and not a track car. I'm sure there are some exceptions though.
