This. It's is on my dream list for the coming season. After the helical diff, of course. If you just want stupids amounts of acceleration, smaller diameter is almost as good as lighter. There's some physics involved in it, but I'll skip it since most people start throwing things at me when I start in on it.

I ended up with the Tire Rack house brand 15x7 this past summer, about 13 lbs per wheel. I ran the new BFG Rival in 205/50R15 but had serious acceleration loss compared to my street setup (15x5.5 11 lb Mini Cooper wheels w/205/50R15 DZ101's).
