my current setup is actually 5-6lbs lighter per corner vs stock 19's with RE050's.



thanks for the link. the offsets are too agressive for wat im looking at, plus those things weigh a lot from what ive seen. like 27-28lbs. ok for a dd (G35C) but not for my Z!




hummm... i know wat you mean by having flat wheels on the Z. it doesn't look right. one of the several reasons why i got the weds that i have now. very curvy.
Im pretty sure my Forgestars were about 23lbs per wheel. I forget.

Correction Ken, my set is staggered 19x9 & 19x11. Looks like the fronts are about 23 and rears 24-25.

Default Hood stripes

Finally got my Z back from the dealer repairing a scratch near the hatch found on delivery. I had them add a decal to the hood while it was there and remove the hamburgers so I could put on the Z emblems.
