Was there a correction to how much the sport wheels weigh? Also what is the weight of the 18 inch base wheels?

NewYorkJon34 · 12-26-2010, 07:57 PM

Sport package wheels: 19x9 Front: Rim 23.2lbs With tire/stock 52.2lbs
19x10 Rear: Rim 23.9lbs with tire/stock 56.8lbs

Thank you! For some reason someone said on here that they weigh more

I just need to find the weight for the 18's now...

Hotchkis sways definitely weigh more than stock bars on the Z/G. No idea how much though

Skeeterbop · 01-13-2011, 11:22 PM

I might have missed it, but has anyone ever thought of removing the sound damping material and seeing how much weight that removes?

NewYorkJon34 · 01-13-2011, 11:26 PM

are there any light weight batteries that are just are reliable as the stock one?

I know there have been a few mentioned. I can't remember the models but they are made by Braille and Optima as well as a couple other manufacturers. The ones that were recommended for street use generally weighed around 15 pounds.

As for the sound damping i was expecting more than that, but it's nice to know that there isn't too much weight there.
