Laguna Seca wheels are here!

going to pick up my 11 black CS vert (6mt/Nav/etc) on Friday....

FYI the 19x 9 LS wheels weighed 30.2 lbs on my scale at home.

Somehow, a boss splitter jumped in the UPS truck with my wheels???

The fronts weigh 30.2lbs, what do the rears weigh? I mean the 19X10 wheel on my M3 weighs 26lbs even, the 19X9" wheel is 25lbs. I can't believe Ford uses such a heavy wheel for the Boss. Did you go 19x9 for all 4 corners?

Such an easy way to increase performance due to less rotational mass.

This might explain the reason so many track going Boss owners are swapping out to 18x10s. Not to mention the seemingly huge price difference between 19" and 18" tires.

im sure the stock boss and cs wheels are the same weight as the ls wheels.

The Brembo wheels at 19X9 are 28lbs each...the rear LS wheels are close to 35lbs.
