It seems some people believe that heavier tires hold the road better and provide better handling / traction when pushing a car thru a corner.
You’re beating this topic to death. Lighter wheels don’t increase traction by it definition so look it up. No matter how complex the math it still works out the same and you know this. Denial doesn’t help exspecialy when you already admitted it.

Find another Mechnaical Engineer and ask them and they will tell you the same without even thinking about.
