The Bullitts are lighter than the other GT wheels. I don't think your 35ths weigh 17lbs, steeda superlights weigh 17.

Yea and they say for every 10 lbs rotating mass is -1 tenth of a second in the 1/4 and you will gain traction out of the hole if you are putting on a wider rim! which should make up for the .05 seconds you would lose!

they are both 8in wide, but i doubt that your 35ths weight that much. they're prolly close enough in weight that any difference in speed or hp will be minimal.
