Feels good. Certainly no less quick than before.
I'm still running in the motor, but I swear that my normal driving thus far (under 4,500 rpms) seems to want to spin the rear wheels easier now there's less weight on the rears. As an example, I've lit up the DSC light a few times exiting my favorite roundabout of late using moderate throttle input. Before the wheel switch the DSC never kicked in under what I would consider to be the same throttle input.
I can only imagine there are only benefits with the lighter wheels, whether it be steering quickness, cornering, braking, fuel economy, or acceleration.
