Wheel Question
How much performance gain could you get switching from stock truck rally wheels to lightweight racing wheels?

Re: Wheel Question
You would need to know the weight reduction from each wheel to start the math to give you accurate numbers.
That's one mean 383 to put down those numbers you have in your sig!

Re: Wheel Question
the rears would be 15lbs lighter ea and the fronts would be 12lbs ea. The engine made 600hp@ 6500 rpm and 520 ft lbs at 5100 on 110 race gas now its on methanol so I'm not sure what it makes but I picked up 3 tenths and 3mph when I switched.
