earlier in this thread the factor of wheel weight was brought up. 2 questions, how much of a weight difference is there between the BBS MR rims and the stock rims? And what difference does it make where the weight comes off of? the RS is a lighter car, but the MR has lighter rims... i dont see how it would make a differnece

 

The MR wheels are 2.8 lbs. lighter each, for a total of 11.2 lbs. That is a reduction in "unsprung" weight, which is has more beneficial effect than reducing "sprung" weight.

 

how many feet do you think they would take off if they were installed on the RS? (60-0 & 100-0)

 

The video is up:

Ahh I wish the video was longer and show better footage on the actual tests. Lots of 3 wheel action around the corners

 

You guys are never satisfied...jeez!
