Message	wheel. You haven't seen many tests, then, and you clearly lack the common sense to understand how unsprung weight, especially in the form of your rotating wheel/tire combination, affect every aspect of handling and a large portion of general performance. From personal experience, I had 2 sets of wheels: Rays V1: 18x8.5 et33 continental sport tires (265 rears 245 fronts) Rays V1 Weight - 18lbs XXR: 18x8.5 et33 identical tires as Rays XXR weight - 26lbs I went from the XXR which made my NA feel like a really slow, sad dying maxima that took muscle to make a turn or really grip the road or even stop (with 350z Brembos), to my Rays, which immediately caused the car to grip the road like a gecko, take corners like I was trying to impress someone, sling snot on the windshield when stopping and generally move the car out of its own way much more easily.
