30kg is a weight of a kid! that is something but i know what you mean though, i mean we probably couldnt tell any difference

I shed around 12Kgs at the wheels and noticed a difference driving around town under 4K rpm.
Installed headers and felt SFA difference.

well if your wheels are lighter, then in steering you could feel quicker response through the steering wheel????but if the body sheds weight, say 20kg, i probably couldnt tell any difference.

Just out of curiocity, are you refering to a reduction of 12kgs from wheels alone ? And if so - what sorta wheels would you be refering to ?

Thanks.
