Ready to race!
18s... weight :)
lol not when your 18's weigh .2 lbs heavier than my 19's ;)

Avant Garde M310 18x8 - 23.3 lbs
Bridgestone Potenza S-04 Pole Position 225/45R19 - 26 lbs (holy fuck dude)

Total unsprung weight: 49.3 lbs per corner x 4 = 197.2 lbs

ASA GT5 18x8 - 23.1 lbs
Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2 235/35R19 - 22 lbs

Total unsprung weight: 45.1 lbs per corner x 4 = 180.4 lbs

And we all know how much unsprung weight affects our cars, even just a few lbs wont go unnoticed. 4 lbs is significant per corner, or combined additional unsprung weight of 16.8 lbs.

I was saying that an 18inch wheel will weight less than a 19inch wheel of the same make; not that all all 18inch wheels are lighter than 19s.

Updates :thumbup:

Parts On Order:

Spulen Boost Pipes.
New coil packs and NGK BKR8EIX plugs.
APR Steering Wheel Insert.
TTRS Strut Mounts and Bearings.

Waiting to find out when CTS is having their christmas sale and going to pick up the IC then. Also looking into a eurolip debating if I want to wait until I get back to Germany and pick one up and have it painted then or just buy it already painted.

Other than that only a couple more months till I'm back and then I get re-united with my car :D:D:D:D
