[b] I'm all about performance, but im also about not having my car look like shit. adding 10 or less more pounds isn't a big deal for a street car.
for every pound you take off for the wheels, it "frees up" 10 lbs of force from the engine. Dropping 10 lbs from the wheels would be like shaving 100 lbs from the car. Read the article about weight (part 2 has info about this)

rubbing depends on tire size too.

rota subzeros are definitely nice.
