oh like 4pot rx7 brakes
Well these RX7 brakes can be used with 16's easily, but was wondering is there any real differences between the 16 and 17's? other than looks. One is the unsprung wieght, plus 16 are usually got a lighter static wieght.
But 17's look cooler. Is the fender to tire clearance any better with 16's over 17's in a hard turn?
thanks for the help guys
rip
oh yea unsprung wieght plays into the idea that the bigger the wheel used, diameter, it's harder to get it rotating than a smaller radius. It has to do with angluar interia and moments.
