stock donuts

my camber ws getn bad on my tires on my 17's so i replaced them with stock donuts. my car seems alot quicker on the stock donuts even though there very similar in weight. does my other ones being 17's really have a difference than stock 15's? i chirp first to second and second to third now and i usto never chirp..hmmm

even if two different sized rims weigh the same, the smaller rim/tire/steelie combo will be quicker.

Its called rotational mass. The further away you go from the center, the more energy it takes to move that wheel.
