I went from the Base 18's(21lbs for the front, 24.5lbs for the rear) to my Weds Sports TC105n's (17.6lbs for the front, 18.4 lbs for the rear), I could feel a pretty big difference. Acceleration was better and quicker throttle response. Tires were easier to brake loose. They aren't gonna make the most amazing difference but everything helps. Oh yeah and to add on, I went wider from 8" to 9.5" wide in the front and 9" to 10.5" in the rear. A 225/50 to a 255/45 in front and a 245/45 to a 275/40 in the rear so I had more contact patch also and could still feel the difference.
