5. it doesn't matter

i use aluminum 30mm. in front with 350z rotors. when i replace my rotors, i'm probably going to try some two piece, slotted rotors for weight savings and cooling efficiency, and upgrade to some ferodo pads and real tires. i do track the car, probably at infineon again.

having driven there twice already i should be able to feel the difference in equipment and stopping power, even though i'm not an elite driver by any means

most people here, however, will never use their cars to the extent necessary for these concerns to matter

1) dont be an idiot
2) weight ALWAYS matters
3) it doesnt matter if you drive your car to the limit, or if you just drive your car. unsprung weight effects how your car brakes, accellerates, and handles.

i still think its funny when people install bigass 18x10 paperweights on their small 240's. you have a heavy ass wheel with a tire that doesnt absorb ANY road imperfections. you end up having the handling performance of a fucking tractor.
