to each their own, that's what i say. but to address your question about abs/braking, the abs system itself won't be affected, but it will feel harder to stop the car due to the heavier rims. you may find that it might be near impossible to engage the abs due to the increased rotational inertia of the wheels.

i had similar problems with my 1st set of 17". they were heavy (for not being chromed). it felt as though i could never get abs to kick in.
