Car looks damn good . Looking at the specs on those front tires , they are only 22lbs a peice compared to 28lbs for a 275/40/17 . Thats a savings of 12lbs of rolling mass off the front just with the tires .
A 17x9 cast WS6 wheel weighs 20.5lbs a peice , those 17x7 only weigh 17lbs a peice .
Another 7lbs of rolling mass savings on just the front rims .
Total thats 19lbs of rolling mass off the front end from stock .
I have read that for every pound of rolling mass reduced is equal to removing 4lbs of static weight off the car .
19 x 4 = 76 , Other words the car will feel like it had 76lbs removed off the frontend .
