Post Lightest 3rd gen Wheels?
Between 15" and 16" Camaro wheels what is the lighest? Im rocking a set of 15" z28 rims for my snows on the S10 and i know they are pretty light but im just curious if the 16s would be similar or significantly more? Prefer the 16s as they looks alot nicer but i will settle for 15s as the rubber is easy to come by and cheap.

Thanks

GTA wheels are lightest IIRC. The 16" IROC wheels are lighter than the 15" cast wheels

These were intended for a Daily S10 of mine not a racecar. I ended up buying another set of 15" z28 5 spokes which were actually lighter then the 15" irocs i bought. Whole point was to put a cheap light weight wheel on and save on rotating mass as my heavy ass 20s i bought killed mileage.
