With just under 15k miles, and 7k being super charged, I decided to change the plugs. With the help of Rafi @ RR Racing
we upgraded to NGK Iridium. Also, decided to go one step colder
Nice to know what the tires weigh, but with a 4k lb car, I really doubt a few pounds will make a noticeable difference, even on the tires and wheels.
Hahahaha...Yea, you're right. For me, makes no difference. I posted the weight merely for visual. I've used the same size/brand tires for some time.
Many others are looking for any unsprung weight reductions they can get. You would be surprised just how many people ask "what do they weigh".
Some look for weight savings any way they can get it. Down to changing nuts/bolts. I respect those guys that are that meticulous

Yeupers. Lighter 2 piece rotors as well as light wheels can make a big difference. Couple that with titanium midpipe and exhaust along with coilovers and you can drop 100-150lbs off of this heavy pig. The unsprung weight makes a huge difference.
Excited to see what wheels you went with. HRE makes a great wheel.

Thanks Steve,
You are correct! HRE wheels are beautiful, and well made. There are some must see HRE tour videos on Youtube

Absolutely! I have the RR 2 piece rotors. In the long run even the smalls help
@biggame since you have had a gs350, a GS350 s/c and now a GS-F s/c, how big of a different is a stock gs350 or even one with boltons from a GS-F? I am going to get either a GS-F or some type of lexus with a V8

Heck, I even had a 98 GS400 too. I really liked that car! Truth is none of them compare to this GSF. Even stock it's just a different animal. The Gs350 was fun, but the thrill didn't last long for me. It's just to heavy and slow. I tried to spice both options up to no avail. I just had a thing for the under dog! Now with the RR Racing s/c option for the gs350 I'm sure it would be more fun. That's just me though. I know a few that love their Gs350 with just exhaust and intake.
Good luck~
Was looking for some clean lug nuts to go with the new wheels. In comes Kics Leggdura 2 pcs shell. Really like these short, not to long! Well made
Only down fall is these don't offer a rotating seat
