Were the two rims the same size? I know in the RSX community when people went from 16" rims to 17", they lost HP. No idea what lighter wheels do for HP wise. I just know losing some weight will always give better performance.

yeah they were the same size 18 chrome corvette wheels to stockers 18's...intresting
