InsanityInc, you should stick with stock wheels and spend your money on tires, that and go on a diet if you care so much about weight

:rotflmao
well, that's one way to look at it...and it makes sense, sort of.
wheel weight still won't make a huge difference in performance. maybe 3 rwhp, but woohoo.... :greddy:
insanity, have you done any suspension work?

yet you wont even feel 3hp. not at all. why do wheel threads end in argument?

is it because half the people dont know what the fuck they are talking about maybe?

Kind of like you?

Just like a lightened flywheel, the horsepower gained isn't the only performance improvement. And yes, I have. My TCA bushings were shredded when I got the car, so I replaced them with polyurethane bushings, and replaced the front and rear sway bars. Got tired of the car making popping noises when you turned hard.

Well, you've got some stuff going.
But honestly man, it's a waste to get a wheel that won't widen your track hardly at all.
I got some S14 SE wheels yesterday (free, thanks Todd) and the sizes/offsets suck, but hell, they're just for the lug conversion.
Don't say spacers "weight too much" b/c that's a load of crap. Get them so your car will handle better overall, not just gain a bit extra hp (which is still a waste of time, but it's your car, so I'm not gonna say "don't do it").
Anyway, I'm done with this thread, good luck w/ it man, but I still say it's a waste.

it's not on the site, you need to contact tirerack and ask for luke, since he definitely knows about kosei's and 240 applications...
