8.5" width wheels MAY be heavier than 8" wheels

We're splitting hair here... Generally speaking, heavier wheels will add unsprung weight to the car, and may feel bloatier/more boat-like for extreme sizes (like if you were adding 10.5" width wheels, with +15lbs at each corner of weight to move through tight curbs)

I don't think there will be much difference going from 8.5 to 8.0, especially since the offset (ET) is the same
