For Z06 wheels: ZR1s will likely be a little more.
Will be trying out the 18" setup this wknd.
It looks like it adds up to about 50# less weight.
My back notices the difference when changing wheels/tires

My Forgeline VX1Rs were nearly 25lbs lighter overall when swapping and the carbon forged set will be about 35lbs lighter! Let me know if you're interested in a set

The new Carbon Forgelines are more than 30 lbs lighter than stock wheels and you have many options depending on taste and budget. Can do the forgekine gs1r, vx1r, hre r101lw all saving over 25 lbs of weight.

That's a great looking wheel, and even better since it's not painted drab black so you can actually see it's styling.
