Weighed the Stock Rear Wheels & My Rear 17X11 DR Setup. Results Inside!

Thought this might be interesing as a lot of people talked about how the 17X11 ZR1 wheel was a lot heavier then our stock wheels out back.

Stock Rear Wheel w SuperCar Tires = 49.5
ZR1 17X11 w BFG 315DR's=50.5


not too shabby in my book, i'll take it!

BlU: Mine are powdercoated Black. FWIW, I dont think there would even be a pound difference.

Are those repo's from AFS or someone??
I assume not stock GM so was curious where you got them.
And DJ Worm that can't be right ..is it..
25 lbs per wheel about??
I figure the rim's can't be but 1-3lbs lighter than the Zr1's so it must all be the lighter tire??
