Stang70Fastback: THE biggest feel change with winter tires probably came from (possibly) their higher side profile and more then probably from much softer compound & sidewalls. Even on very same wheel most winter and all season tires will rob lot of steering sharpness.
Lighter wheels can be felt a bit and they can improve performance a bit .. but only slightly. In many cases below what they may cost. From another viewpoint though .. if one decides to change wheels anyway for looks reason, to add some individual touch, why not look for if new wheels will be lighter too to reasonable extent? (forged wheels, even while the lightest, rarely are worth their high price. But lighter cast wheels .. or used forged ones in good condition .. why not?)
