new slicks/wheels and skinnies for this fall/winter. I hope they pick up some ET. this wheel tire combo has dropped near 80lbs off the car. Should be good for atleast a tenth by the static weight. and rotating weight i hear is very benefical to lose so i hope to pick up another tenth there and break 12.99! 🙂
I’m now running 15x8 Weld Prostar on the rear with heavily grinded down calipers so it would fit and a 5/16" spacer!! and 15x4 summit star wheels up front. they look very similar and the summit ones were like 50 bucks cheaper so i went with those.
Running 165/80/15’s Kumho powerstar radials up front. cheap tire but they work from what i’ve been reading. Mickey Thompson ET streets out back…26x10.50x15. i now wish i went with the 26x11.50’s like i had before on my iroc wheels. they are abit narrow for my likeing but should still hook well.
Sorry for crappy pics, abit blurry, i will get some more tommorrow hopefully

Good observation on the value of reducing the weight of rotating mass. You get the static weight benefit PLUS less inertia to overcome.
Reduction of rotating mass is the best bang for the buck (performance-wise) that I have ever tried. The bonus is that it doesn’t make the car less reliable nor harder to maintain, either.
Good luck and report back.
