When toasting close to anything In my daily traffic light Grand Prix's in the i3 I need to be super careful to watch out for any big bumps or pot holes in the road. A good size pot hole with the 19 inch wheels under full load feels like it's connected to an amplifier tuned up to 11, it feels like the motor mounts take the full hit with some serious rocking back and forth. The tyres feel like rocks during these hits and just transmit the load to the motor mounts. I imagine the 20 inch rims are worse.
What are your thoughts on a 18 or 19 super lightweight rims with ps4's or a more sports oriented tyre with some flex. Offsets and tyre size will be a challenge on this car.
I don't care about loss of range and with all the free chargers I now have a heavy wallet which needs lightening, are you able to help?
Carbon Revolution wheels have recently caught my eye.

The issue with the wheels is the width. Not many wheel producers have the forgings that small.
We are going to make the design above in flow forged and in stock i3s sizes so customers do not have to invest in new tyres.
