planning an experiment for my youtube channel and researching light weight wheels and tires for the Gen II Leaf SV+. I'm speculating but it would seem the main difference between the S+ and the SV+ is the lighter weight 16" wheels and more narrow tires. The SV+ has LED lights and the heat pump but this isn't enough to overcome the differnce in unsprung weight. Sooooooo
I wanna try a light weight wheel and tire package on the SV+ and see if there is any performance and or range gains. If money were no object, it would be a new set of Gold Volk TE37's but alas, I'm not a Youtube influencer and my budget choices are not as generous.
The most obvious choice would be the Enkei RFP1. It comes in both 16x7 (13.7lbs) and 17x7 (14.9lbs) flavors and is very light weight but alas only comes in Silver. I would so love to have a set of gold wheels with the Deep Blue Pearl paint.
So, I would love to get everyones opinion on wheel and tire combos. bonus points for gold.
