I don't think too many people rock the Spoons for its looks. For me, the wheel/tire pacakge makes a huge difference in how the car response... especially in braking.
If anyone cares...
- Stock OEM AP2V2 wheels + OEM Bridgestone tires weigh: 41.5lbs front & 47.5lbs rear (per wheel/tire). eek!
- Spoon 16" wheels + Dunlop Dirrezza Star Spec tires weigh: 31.5lbs front & 34.5lbs rear (per wheel/tire).
That's a total of 46lbs difference between the setups. Maybe the car accelerates a little faster (who knows). But, it definitely response better and brakes a bit better.

combine that with a Titanium 60RS, Recaro, lightweight battery, and other lightweight goodies and you'll have a car under 2600 lbs.
feels like a different S...
