The car does seem to accelerate a minutiae bit better (I am still one of the very few running a fully factory tune and turbo on here), but yeah, that's all by 'seat of the pants', unquantified 'feel'.
I do not even have the factory wheels anymore, and have driven with the only slightly less than factory wheel weight TD Pro race 1.2s in 17x8 (~19 lbs.), with slightly heavier than the factory tires, 215/40-17 Federal RS-RRs on them, and the ubiquitous on here (and in the states in general), 'go to', Konig Dekagrams in 16x8 (~14 lbs.) with (forgot the weight) 205/50-16 Nitto Neo Gens on them.
Truthfully, I did not feel much difference between any of these wheel/tire setups, and the factory so-called 'boat anchors', but then maybe I am not as sensitively adept at detecting those slight weight at the corners 'feel' differences that everyone else on here notices so radically.![[dunno]](/images/smilies/icon_smile_dunno.gif "Dunno [dunno]")
