Guys,
Who has weighed their 18x10 wheels before mounting and what did you find? I'm looking for a good set of 18x10 that I don't have to run spacers with (so the C5 stuff won't work for me). I found a set that I like but they weight 30.2 pounds each and that's AWFUL painful to me, several other wheels from Summit Racing were in the 28-29 pound range, so perhaps I'm just a spoiled brat, but I would really like to fit a 24-26 pound wheel under there. i saw the post quoting wheelweights.net but that website appears to be down now..

Hate to be the one always pimping forgestar, but their 18x10 weighs 20lbs. Made to your specs no spacers needed. Not cheap at $1300 a set, but try getting a custom wheel for that. Excellent brake clearances too.

I am holding my credit card IN MY HAND.. i would pull the trigger on a set of 20 pound wheels TODAY if available. I should add that the ones I got quoted were $1600 and they weren't even sure they would be for ThirdGen Specifications... This post has been edited by BrianChevy: Mar 17 2015, 02:21 PM |

I paid 1370 from DV8 motoring last year, price may have gone up. I would give Sam Strano a call, he lists them for $350 a wheel and would know more about offsets for f bodies.
