Well as far as weight is concerned, running 2 saddle vs 1 shorty adds a bit of weight as it is. So wire weight doesn't really strike a concern for me, especially being within 1/4oz left to right on saddle and over 100g heavier on one side running 1 shorty. So cost of weight for the benefit of balance was my concern. Traction roll is a bit of a concern @ my usual track if you get hooked up good!
