I think that is going to be a common mistake when people modify the FRS/BRZ. If consideration of wheel weight and tire diameter isn't taken into account, the balance could suffer. The car was a BLAST to drive on the crappy stock rubber. I also think one modification that will be very popular is a new flywheel. It felt way way way too heavy for the power of the car.
