Default Got my new Roush Wheels! Question!

Pics will be on tommorrow. Detailed today and its dark now so no pics..
I got a question though...

I wonder if and how much my new wheels slowed down my stang...
06GT.. did have stock 18's.. I believe the stock were 18x8.5 (correct me if I'm wrong.)
I got the Roush wheels with 18x10's....

Better traction cuz the tire is slightly bigger tires now are 275/40 18... wonder if it is slowing me down much though because of weight... and how much....
Anyone?

I don't think you will be noticing the difference , Roush wheels aren't that much heavier.Technically yes the wieght has an effect . I did the same thing ,adding Roush 18 x 10's and didn't notice .You will notice better handling because you have more rubber on the road.
