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:yesnod:

Packaged weight I've got 27.12lbs for the front, 32.85lbs for the rear for the painteds. Chrome I've got 29.32lbs for the front, 35.05lbs for the rear. Again, appears to be packaged weight.

And I thought the 30 lbs my gt350 came with was heavy, holy cow.

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.

I agree, I love black wheels in person, but they get lost in pics and the amount of black OEM wheels anymore is ruining the look for the aftermarket wheel world. They just don't look that custom to me anymore...

When my 88 year old grandma begin rocking black wheels on her Camry about 5 years ago, I knew they had lost their pizzaz.

This is a true story btw.
