I feel I've gained at least .1 to .15 from running them instead of regular wheels and tires like I used to. I use to be frequently in the first three pair to run eliminations because I was barely under my indexes (my car was originally factored at 150hp which was very hard, considering other combos were either given the same factor as their advertised hp, or no more than 10hp over O.E.M.). The wheels allow the usage of the thinner front runners that definitely reduced rolling resistance.
