Question Couple of 1LE questions

Anybody know the weight of the wheels? Also the front and rear spring rates for 1le? Thanks

Hmmm, that is a good question. I know they are lighter than the standard SS wheels but not sure if anyone has weighed a ZL1 wheel/tire combo or individually. Not a clue on the spring rates either but good questions!

The R&T article I have says the wheels reduce the unsprung weight by 5.5 lbs per corner, so that should put the wheels in the 27lb range

When i was putting them into the back of the bus after the F1's were mounted, they were still pretty light in comparison to the stock SS wheels and tires.
