Oh yeah definitely. Not sure exactly what the formula is but rotational weight counts way more than static weight in terms of performance and you should feel the difference in both acceleration and braking.
4lb weight savings on rotational mass is great. Should help in several areas. I think most folks forget these are 4400+lb cars. I would have preferred they saved 4 on the fronts and 2 on the rears and made the rears a staggered fit. Also, I think its a smart move to offer these as they more closely match the style of drag wheels purchased for these cars (look similar to Welds)
Personally I think those are gross, and for for pound off every corner I'll take the five spoke any day. I love a simple five spoke. If ANYONE picks these(5 spokes)up and wants to sell them. Gimme a shout.
Don't get me wrong either, I'm not in love with these wheels, I just think they're a decent wheel. I wouldn't run out and order a set , but if the price was right I would definitely pick them up.
I think the new five spokes are awesome! Clean and simple five spoke with just a mild touch of modern update and design into the spokes. I'd buy them in a heart beat for my Scat Pack AND my Cuda AND my Ram Daytona (in the correct sizes and bolt patterns of course).
So many amazing points in here that I have said since the first time I saw these. The HC wheels are awful for cleaning, especially the inner portions of the barrel. The spokes are a little too thin for what I'm trying to find, I agree on that as well. Niche has a five spike rim (don't remember the model) that has thicker spokes on the SUV version. The thicker spokes make it look like a totally different rim and soooo much sexier

LOL cause if you look at them closer, you'll see the '06-07 MSRT8 Wheels, only they come in 22-26", but sadly only the 6-8 Lug pattern...
