LuLu Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 Upgrading wheels and tires seems a popular topic here. But, I have often wondered if anyone is paying attention wheel weight? Anyone looking to reduce power-taxing rotating mass? If an aftermarket drive shaft reduces rotating mass and delivers more HP/TQ to the wheels, well...The wheels themselves are partners in that game. If you want more power at the wheels and quicker ETs (and desire a change in wheel appearance as well), consider this selection? http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/oz.shtml (follow the links too) O.Z.

SWEDEMAN Posted July 25, 2008 Report Share Posted July 25, 2008 I'll stick with "pure" Shelby wheels LuLu. Also I guess it is just I can't see changing the wheels if your not changing sizes, why do it? The factory 18's are extremely nice. But I changed because like Roger, Adam, Dave C., GT/SC etc... we all changed sizes that dramatically altered the appearance of the car. But that is why this is a free country we all can spend our money as we wish. Enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RogerS Posted July 25, 2008 Report Share Posted July 25, 2008 Mac, I do know that changing from the 18" stockers to the 20" CS wheels made a difference of an additional 4 lbs. total. I did not think that was too bad considering more wheel mass. Roger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
