Re: What exactly is unsprung weight? (boostedcivicsir)

but will a reduction give you big gains in handling and/or performance?

Unsprung weight can also be thoughto of as parts that move with the suspension...
Lowering the weight of these parts will increase the responsiveness and sensitivity of you suspension system. Usually, feel and handling are increased when unsrung weight is lowered.
I can go more in depth, but I don't wanna bore anyone...
