Serious 01-26-2005, 03:15 AM 65lb or so. x986 01-26-2005, 03:29 AM Wow! That's close to 5 or 6 hp.

I am not sure which is worse for a car, weight high or unsprung. Any answers on the wheels this morning? 333inlinesix 01-26-2005, 12:43 PM Someone else asked the weight of the 18 vs. 19 inch wheels, but there was no answer. I am not sure which is worse for a car, weight high or unsprung. Any answers on the wheels this morning? I am pretty sure that the 19's are very close in weight to the 18's since the 19 inchers are forged, and the 18s are cast, but I am not positive.
