    Default scion xb/bb ..weight question

    I'm considering buying some 16's for my scion xb and my OEM rim/tire weigh exactly 4.9lbs less than the after market rims

    my question is .........is 5 lbs going to mess up my fuel economy that bad or should I roll the factory and save gas

    I once heard the for every pound of wheel weight is like carry 10-15 pounds inside you car?!??!?!?!??! sounds weird whatta you guys think
