"blades" are 16 lb wheels. A 15" Rota slipstream is a little over 12lbs. 4 lbs per wheel = 20lbs of unsprung weight (weight not held up by your suspension) is like taking 50+ lbs off of your car.

Personally I dont like "blades" or slipstreams. Slips look like they are made of plastic and "blades" are just plain ugly on anything but a 98+ integra. You should get the wheels that you want..and **** what anyone on H-T has to say... INCLUDING MYSELF.
*EDIT*: a lighter wheel will make your car accelerate faster...It wont be the most noticable thing in the world, but it will help.
