swaping out 162's, better gas milage?

thekewl1 · 07-21-2006, 05:44 PM

Just curious if any1 is getting better gas milage after swaping out their 162's? I know the 162 w/RFT are a little heavy, but will it be enough to notice a difference? I'm getting new wheels tomorrow, so just wondering.

Depends on how light your new setup will be compared to the 162's and RFT's, but any help in unsrung wieght reduction is a plus.
