I was just going by what you had posted for wheel/tire weights before: stock wheel/tire 62 lbs, vms/hoosier 32 lbs, vms/mt 52 lbs. Saving 30 ea on front and 10 ea on rear added up to 80.

FWIW here's my notes from my weight notepad. I weighed everything myself.

WHEELS+TIRES
Stock 20x8.5 black carbon flash wheel + stock 245 40 20 run flat tire = 60LBS
VMS 18x5 wheel 21lbs + Hoosier 28x4.5x18 13lb = 34lbs
VMS 17x10 wheel 22lbs + Mickey Thompson RT ST R 305 45 17 31lbs = 53lbs
Savings per wheel front 26lbs
Savings per wheel rear 7lbs
Total savings = 66lbs

The weights are within 1-2lbs of what I have seen from Don and others.

Here's where the drag pack weight figures in my post came from, posts from lt4camaro (previous owner of your drag pack):

Stock and skinnies here https://www.camaro6.com/forums/showthread.php?t=612258

Rears here https://www.camaro6.com/forums/showt...=603483&page=5


Even at the lower figure of 66 that your scale is reading Dynamical, that would still be a decent reduction in rolling weight.

Yeah mine was on a digital scale, so I did round up. So either way pretty damn close

I plan on going back in mid/late Oct to grab some negative Density altitude

That is where the discrepancy is, the OE tires/wheels where approx 57 lbs each when I put them on a bathroom scale. My error reporting that before I weighed them.

That 1/8 mile pass equates to about a 12.20 1/4 mile which is good for a bone stock ss
