Real world ET gains from front skinnies?

[Stl376]

What are the real world gains I can expect to see from running front Racestar 18x5 with the M/T Sportsman? On a stock Hellcat with some weight reduction and 305/18 M/T Street R’s on the back.

Would like to try the fronts, just wondering what to expect. .10? more?

Thanks!

Maybe I will test it some time. Should be at least .05 just with the weight plus there is rolling resistance. I normally bolt on my race set up and drive to the track. Without a real world test it is all a guess

It's about .05 > .10 , at the most.

My Guess it might be zero. Since you are choosing the heaviest possible skinny wheel and tire. In other words I think the weight reduction aspect is more important than the rolling resistance aspect. I could be wrong.
