My sentiments exactly. I am thinking the same, Bridgestones are that much better plus new wheels are slightly lighter. Although, the 225s are far from light (12.63kg or 27.8lbs).

Actually, I will put the old wheels on the scale for comparison while I still have them and then also weight the 225s. Really curious what the difference is.

I just went for a lengthy drive last night and the ride is so excellent now. ST X coil-overs feel awesome.
