Quick update on the tires from Saturday. Local member salaki and I drove through some short-twisties and finished it off on a curve which transitioned from one freeway to another -- me going 100+, him at 115+. His H&R sport springs and track-driving experience were obvious advantages over me, but I love the tires. They are grippy, and a lot softer and stickier than Falken 452s. I wouldn't hesitate to buy them again.

How much lighter? Do you notice a difference?
Coming from staggered 20" on 35/30 series tires and 18" with RFT tires, I would say that I do notice a difference, but that's my butt dyno talking. So don't hold me accountable
