535 X Drive gets new 19" Renn Motorsport Wheels | RS-51

Pat@sonictuning · 02-15-2015, 09:34 PM

Customer wanted something clean, lightweight and functional for his daily setup.

We decided on the RS-51 due to the simple and lightweight design. Combined with Conti DWS, front weights 45lbs and the rear weights 49lbs average 6-8 lbs unsprung weight saving per corner.

not feeling those wheels. saving weight is always a good thing. are you going to feel 5 or 6 pounds all that much?

You may feel it a tad but not much. But outside of replacing some of the major things on the car like exhaust, and some of the body pieces light weight wheels and tires are the next weighing saving area people go. If your are racing your car almost everybody is running a light weight wheel and not a heavier wheel, because with track times 20-24lbs in weight savings can make a difference.

I think they look great. Kind of refreshing to see a clean and simply modded F10. It's easy to go overboard with the modding. I'm of the belief that less is more and I think you nailed it.

What are you lowered on?
