[QUOTE="cempaka, post: 311456, member: 7014"] It will lighten the car a bit, but it is also subtracting it from over the drive wheels. With an M40 it probably will not be a big deal though, with the lower power and more even weight distribution compared to 6-cyl. Maybe a slight shift towards oversteer tendency, if anything at all? I think 1 second reduction is also a bit optimistic for acceleration time improvement. I'd say the best option is to source a new spare that will fit your hubs, because it's better to have a spare and not need it than to need a spare and not have it. [/QUOTE]
