maybe i should have left the stock flywheel in my car instead up upgrading to the fidanza.

That counts as a performance mod.

There is much debate about wheel diameter increase disadvantage over weight loss advantage. Sure, 7 lbs of weight taken off for every 1 lb of unsprung sounds jiffy. But then you stop and think, how much does moving denser material farther outward of the hub affect that? Nobody here has dyno'd the differences. I was considering a dyno test with mine, but not until I'm really bored and have extra income to waste. If you want to get them and dyno the differences, please do, it will put down the debate for the most part.
