Hey guys, when I picked up my Fiesta it had 15x8 Team Dynamics wheels on it that were really light, but I wasnt a fan of the way that 15's looked. I put the stock wheels that were included with the car back on and the first thing I noticed was the drop in performance! I legitimately thought something was wrong with the car compared to how it felt with the 15's. I started looking into picking up some 17's in a lighter weight, one because I like the way 17's look, and 2, my factory tires are almost new, so I wouldn't need to get tires.
I have decided I want white wheels, and am trying to get the weight down a little bit. I have read through the threads about light weight wheels, but I was wondering if it would be a noticeable difference going with say a 17-18lb wheel? From what I gather, the stock wheels are 22.5lb so we are talking 4-5 lb per wheel. I know the TD weighed 34 each with tires, and looks like the stock is around 45 so I wouldn't be getting as drastic weight reduction.
I have narrowed it down to either the Sparco Assetto Gara, or the Rota Recce at the moment.
