Found this article on the web this morning

I like it as it explains some misconception about weight reduction in cars
http://www.w8ji.com/rotating_mass_acceleration.htm

You can find this sort of data all over the web but this article is nicely condensed and adds some mathematical fact to explain it

Now if someone has a site that can order tires by weight would be the best
(I know tirerack has tire weight sometimes but you can do a search based on it )
 
^if you want tires that are light go with toyo. I think there one of the only companies who actually take weight into consideration. I remember a few years back the T1R were much lighter than most tires out there. I think the R888 as well.

Will read the article tonight thx.:bigup:
