Default Flywheel?

What weight flywheel is good for street use i wanna upgrade mine when i do my clutch which weight should i get for street use? i was thinking around 11.9 i saw a 7 but that would make city driving a huge pain right?

the lighter you go, the better it becomes for acceleration, but worse for momentum. Your revs will drop quickly, making it less streetable. I would go with the 11.9 lb, or even the 11-14 lb (varies by application) competition clutch flywheel would be more ideal IMO

I ran an 8lb flywheel and it was fun for around town driving. Can't really say what the effect was longterm on the engine...
