Howmuch does a Mahel 4 bolt wheel weigh, apparently the Fuchs 2.0 liter is about 11 pounds, which is pretty darn light. Just curious, low unsprung weight is always a good thing

so lets talk rotating mass... i have been thinking about this. Doesn't a 5 lug conversion with vented rotors and big calipers weigh more than stock set-up?
Seams to me that all that stuff is a waste of money till you exaust the stock systems ability to stop the car. Make sure your stock is working right, spend the money where it helps most, shocks, bushings, bars, tires, handling. then cut weight, then add motor till you need more brakes. I bet slotted rotor with aggressive pads and BMW calipers would stop a ton of motor. just my 2 cents. |
