Hmm, you would probably loose 5-7 lbs off of the wheels you currently have so thats like taking 25lbs of rotating mass off. Definetly something you'll feel in acceleration/braking/turning.

But the GT-AVs are just so bling dude!!!! really give a lot to the car and go great with the bodykit

T57-RC = clean, light, 5 spoke design. They are on my shortlist of wheels too. Do it!
