Effect on ET/MPH with heavier wheels?
Folks,
Anyone have an formula (or care to take a guess) at what the effect of going to a 5lb heavier wheel on all four corners whould be (all other factors being equal) ? I currently have the stock 17" WS6 wheels (1996) and my first time at the track I have so far managed a best of 13.3 at 108 (on Firestone SZ50's). Car should be putting down around 350 RWHP (but I won't know for sure until dyno tune in May)
