Lightweight ZL1 wheel options
What lightweight/inexpensive wheel options are available for the ZL1 under $3000.00? I plan on selling my OEM silver polished ZL1 wheels once I find another set.

if you want cheap gravity cast wheels, almost anything out there. the lightweight wheels are typically forged aluminum and they aren't cheap. You may be able to go with some "rotary forged" wheels like the forgestar F14's. They are pretty lightweight, and not "cast" wheel soft.

Beyern Spartan and TSW Nurburgrings are as light or lighter than the factory wheels and in that price range.
The OEM wheels are pretty light since they are forged. Why not just keep them?

No. The 10" offset is 35 mm. That will work front and back, but won't stick out as far. The fronts will be about .5" in and rears .25" in from stock. They way about 25 lbs.
