Jimmy I have heard they roll better but it was just a coin flip on why I ended up with the early chev spindles and had nothing with the fact they are supposed to have less rolling loss. I actually found this out after getting them. 

I doubt they would make any noticeable difference in speeds at 200 mph vs roller type.


(*forget previous statements....he77 yes I used 'em to make me go faster!)
