So the wheel weighing a bit more and resisting some can be desirable? I hadn't considered that.

Oh, I see! Makes sense.I think you got me wrong, it's not that I liked the additional weight, I liked the lower gearing that came as a result of going with a smaller diameter tire.
Yes, that is why I ended up going with the EC Sport (set of 4 is 12lbs lighter than PSS in size 225/45R17!) since they are supposedly on par with the super sports. I do realize that I will lose some cornering sharpness over the PSS, however for me personally it will be more than made up for by the superior ride quality.
Just go with the lightest set you can afford in the stock rolling diameter and add more HP...then you won't miss the added power from the gearing change
Win win
