<VV> Hands Wheels **REPO's**

[Bryan Blackwell]

IMHO, not really.  A couple pounds helps, but with stock size tires 
they'll ride pretty well and not perform all that well.  Bigger wheels 
can have a wider variety of weights so it's more of an issue with a 
15x7 for example.  And until you've gone to a bigger wheel/tire combo, 
the performance you're giving away is far more than a pound or so at 
each corner.  They do look nice tho.
