The 50/50 weight distribution is almost more important than the weight loss.
BMW is going to be jealous! |

The 50/50 shown is the cross weight, not the front/rear distribution. Don't get those confused. Looks like this car is roughly 55/45 for f/r weight distribution with 1/8 tank of gas which isn't terrible but not great either. |

Jordan had very few miles on the stock wheels/tires so we don't really have much in the way of feedback with adding the ZL1 replicas. He is very impressed with the vehicles handling characteristics with the ZL1 set-up though.

Balanced
49.9% cross balance is awesome. Also, the right side of the car has more weight than the driver side. This is great too as it's a more balanced car with the driver and steering gear making clockwise road courses (a joke in the U.S., BTW) much easier on that left front tire/rotor. Nice Chevy!
Cannot wait for the 1LE!!!! |

We weighed in at just 3589 lbs with 1/8 tank of fuel and LG ZL1 replicas, wrapped in GY F1's in 285/35/20 up front and 305/35/20 in the rear. We weighed the wheels and tires against the OE wheel/tire set-up and our difference was 14 lbs (largely due to the addition of a LOT more rubber) making the OE set-up a dainty (when compared to the 5th Gen) 3575 lbs. You may have noticed in the photos but the car has nearly perfect weight cross-balance. 49.9%!! More power, less weight and great balance. No wonder these cars are such performers, right out of the box! Nicely done GM!

I started another thread with my 2SS weight, but it got moved to the wheel section since I also had the wheel/tire weights. I'll add my cars weight here also:
2SS 6 speed NPP MRC 5 spoke OE wheels and tires no sunroof full tank of fuel (3 miles from fill up, the car only had 6 miles on it total) LF = 987 lbs RF = 1021 lbs LR = 853 lbs RR = 874 lbs Total = 3735 lbs I used the Rebco 1Weight scales we have at work. They are calibrated yearly and very accurate (~$1100 scales, should be!).
