:bs Depending on how extreme you go with the pressure or wheel/tire weight, tires and tire pressure can make a difference.

Oh, yes they do! I used to have stock wagon wheels and runcraps. Did my first dyno and came out with 322 rwhp. Then I put on my Z06 chromies and Pilots, then went and had another dyno. 316 rwhp. :eek: WTF? Then I weighed my stock wheels and runcraps - 58lbs. Then I weighed my Chromies and Pilots - 63lbs. 5lbs each wheel = 10lbs more rotating mass for the motor to turn. I thought the Pilots would be lighter than runcraps but they are wider and the wheels are wider... :crazy:
