19" rims question.

Hi guys!

I'm very fall in love with Privat Netz wheels.

But i have a few things to worry about it.

I asked a person who have those wheels and he said

the cars gonna be a little bit sluggish about 5-10%.

After searching a few threads, i knew that netz's weight is

about 5lbs less than stock one. so I would like to be cleared

why the cars gonna be sluggished. and Does the 5-10% sluggish

are gonna be feel a big difference? Thanks.

im using 19" volk TE progressives and they actually feel lighter than my 17" stocks. im not sure what the weight difference is but when i mount the tire/rim setup onto my TL i can tell already its lighter. i can feel it in my launches as well. its got that extra pep to it. or maybe its just me!

Even though its lighter, the weight is now on the outer diameter because its bigger.
