Message	the wheel itself. The GTVs are heavier primarily because they are bigger. I have to assume that a shorter sidewall tire will help to offset the additional wheel weight that comes with the GTVs. In the end, you will not notice the difference unless you are a regular to timed events (autocross, drag races). What you will notice is that everyone will think the GTVs are VERY cool... (from experience).
