Rolling mass ?'s
I am getting some slicks ordered today but have a ? or two.
How much of a difference would a total weight of 30lbs. difference in rims(2) matter?
Basically how much difference for one rim that weights 22 vs. a 37 going to make?

1# of rotating weight is equal to 6# of stagnent weight.
SO if the aluminum driveshaft is 3# lighter than the Steel driveshaft in '99-00 models, that is effectively equal to 18# of weight.
(this is only an example, I'm not sure the weight of the aluminum driveshaft compared to the steel driveshaft weight.)
