Sidenote though, think about how heavy the tires that you're looking at are. Some people spend THOUSANDS of dollars on lightweight wheels and totally forget that the tire on the outside has the most effect on rotational weight.
Firestone Indy 500's (rated higher than the sport comp 2's, and cheaper) are 23lbs a tire in 245/40-17
The KING: Michelin Pilot Supersports (the best tire above 300tw, and on sale at the moment) are 23lbs in that size too
G-Force Sport Comp-2's? Those are 25lbs in that size.
Food for thought
