Default How much do z06 wheels weigh

I have a 2002 z06 with chrome wheels... anyone know where I can find out weights (if I buy replacements I dont want to add unsprung weight).

Any quality wheel recommendations that are not astronomically expensive would also be appreciated (and what the heck... if you z06 is silver... send pics!).

thx M

look in the sticky.. It's all up there.

Also here is a web site that has the weights of most all the wheels that you can name.

http://www.wheelweights.net/

This listing of weights covers the z06 in both the forged (alcoa) and the Speedline wheels (spun cast). Note that you aren't really going to do much better than the stock wheels unless you spend a whole bunch of money on something like CCW classics and then you will only save a pound or so....

Also note that some of the wheels on the list may be lighter, but don't offer a fitment for a car as heavy as a Corvette.

In short, you aren't likely to do better than the stock Z06 wheels unless you spend a bundle on forged wheels.
