Also, the OEM tires are Bridgestone Protenza 50 something. I noticed that some comparable tires are lighter by a pound or two. Will that effect performance? is it worth it?

Thanks in advance everyone.
No one has gotten anywhere near 35k out of the stock Bridgestones. 20k is the upper threshold of the life on these things. Mine lasted 18k and I swapped them for Ventus V12s.
