512's weigh 22.5lbs. I'm lookin for lighter tire. I just got the Enkei RP02's those things are 15.2lbs each.

Just tryin to get the lightest setup possible without breaking the bank.

Also the Falken tire (no pun intended) is v rated. the blowtenza's are h rated. So you get better traction off the line right?

V-rated tires do get more traction but they were faster than H-rated tires.
