Default How much did I lose with the big wheels and heat?

Hey guys,

Just curious what you think I would lose with 19inch c6 wheels with runflats on the rear and after 9 dyno pulls in 2 hours. I did a best of 395 on the last pull (car was being tuned). Just curious what you think that would take from me. Will be getting dyno'd again soon, but I thought my numbers were low for my mods. H/C PRC 5.3's with TR224.

Thanks

approx. 10rwhp less for the wheels and if the car is heat soaked it will probably be down 7-10rwhp.

I agree - We did some different wheel wt test about a year ago and down about 10 hp for the 19s over 18s is about right.

The heat soak ( ~ 1 hp decrease for every 10* increase) would be an additional 7-10 hp decrease.
