Alignment/Corner Bal - Does It Matter What Wheels?

Fuchs or Rota Fox? One for the track, the other for posing. I'm having some suspension work done, plus an alignment and corner balance. Should I put one set of wheels over the other on the car when getting the work done, or does it matter?

if you're looking to optimize your track time, I would go with the track wheels for the procedure.

very small differences in the unsprung weight will sometimes mean different settings, plus differences in the offsets - however minuscule - could also effect settings.

Bottom line is, you probably won't be able to tell the difference on the street, but you should be able to control the car better on the track.

Just my .02, I'm sure others will chime in.
