Message	but thats neither here nor there. I would think that a lighter wheel would be easier of the motor to turn, and the fact that majority of the new wheels weight will be located on the outside of the rim (the tire) the centripital forces would increase by rotational momentum/inertia.... The "witcho" incident: "fuck you bitch you fuckin started this shit . say sorry or bring down your slow as z witcho slow as pops in the car and i'll teach you both a new lesson. Not internet related but PAIN related" ....posted by z32pilot on April 09, 2003 at 11:30 PM My sounddomain page Leave some feedback on my site!
