question wheels (team dynamics pro race)

[ben20VT]

Hello,

I want to put new wheels on my ibiza sport 1.8T (210HP).
But I want light wheels like team dynamics Pro race 1.2 (always in 16 inch).
Do you know the weigh of the original 20VT sport wheels ?
Do you think that I will notice difference in performance with Pro race 1.2 ?

I wouldn't imagine you would notice any difference with slightly lighter wheels. The only performance improvement would be if you fitted better tyres on them i would say. i have 17" pro races 1.2's, i know theyre supposed to be one of the lightest alloys on the market.

in "theory" they will reduce the unsprung weight , therefore you might notice a difference in braking, accelartion, and handling, whether this is actually the case is another matter...

well i know a 17in super leggera is far lighter than standard wheel if that helps!
