now someone just needs to do a wheel stiffness table :D (no point having low unsprung weight if your camber compliance means you have positive camber when you're cornering)

Has nothing on 5Zigen Pro N1's /cry
No "stance", no "hellaflush", none of that bullshit. Nothing but no grip on full boost.

Stuck on Gen 3 ISC / PowerFC incompatibility. Although they appear the same as me and matty both checked I have no idea why my PFC Won't boot up with it.

hehe their list is pretty comprehensive, but if i remember correctly, my tire itself weights almost if not the same as the rims. I'm just curious.

The tyre quite possibly weighs a lot more. Our 13" tyres are 6 or 7kg each, and our wheels are only 2kg. I'd bet 17" tyres are more like 12-15kg
