Got my C7 Z51 Machine Faced/Black wheels last week. Stuck with OEM sizes and bought new Nitto 555's to mount on them. 1sr Rate Corvette was great to work with. Very good customer service. The wheels were packaged very well with protective plastic band that the Tire Dealer left on when mounting the tires to avoid any marks on the new wheels.

I believe they were 9.5" & 10.5" which are Z06 widths. Had no trouble with mounting them on stock size tires. I would have preferred stock width to shave a little weight but these were the size available. Call DOCZ he will help you out with any questions.

basically mid twenties I don't have the exact weight on me right now...but honestly that's like nothing I'd rather go on a diet and lose 20 lbs lol then spend $3,000 dollars more to get wheels that weigh 5 lbs less 
Also I went from Runflat rocks to Non RF so I lost weight there so I was ok with the heavier rims....and actually I don't know if they were really any different because I had wagon wheels on my car and I think those are almost as heavy or heavier then my new rims so lol idk...
lets put it this way my car doesn't go any slower to the human eye

I actually did weigh them. For my 17" and 18" size the fronts were 22.5 and the rears were 26.5. That's just a couple lbs heavier but they are also wider wheels since my C5 is a base and they are Z06 width wheels. I can't tell the difference in acceleration, ride and handling. I love the wheels and get a lot of comments on them at car shows.
