so...unsprung weight. how much of a noticable difference will it make if i take off my 14" alloy wheels with 195/70/14s and bolt on some cast steel enkei 205/40/17s. they felt a bit heavier, but not too bad. i have cranked bars and blocks. on a toyota pickup. thanks people.

the 17's will be an 1.25" shorter than the 14's

i know. already test fitted them. they look good. they were on a mt feature taco a while back, before its feature. brand new tires, and good shape rims. 700 bucks. should have them soon-ish. they sit in a bit farther than id want though.

and the height change will be nice. lil drop in height and gearing.

If you pay close attention you will notice that the truck feels rougher over bumps, but that's it.

It's obvioulsy easier to feel big weight changes.
