1/4 mile time drop from ws6 rims to weld drag lites? I am thinking about some 15x4 / 15x10 weld drag lites over my stock ws6 rims. How much time could be shaved off from the 1/4 mile just doing this?

Since you usually gain about a 1/10th for every hundred pounds taken off the car and double that for unsprung weight I'd say they'd be good for at least a tenth and a MPH.

When I swapped mine I put ET streets on the back and skinny radials on the front and saved about 70 pounds. This was with prostars which are a couple pounds heavier than draglites.
