Glad to see they kept the high mount spoiler. I was getting worried seeing all low profile spoilers. lol
My second question is with the Yellow TC is the paint that flake color that they had at the auto shows? To me just that minor detail in the paint made a huge different in the look of the car.

ya actually lol, remember its not mass, its rotational mass
i think its for every pound of rotational mass, it equals 10 lbs, so 4 lbs per rim = 16 which equals 160lbs rotational mass you just lost

They should work out to be the same weight as the 05-07 wheels . The weight lost with all ports will be gained back extra 1/2" in rim width .....and weight does matter . My rims that are 17lbs made quite a noticeable improvement in acceleration and overall feeling of driving the car . Not so much so though if ur only talking 1-2 lbs .
there GM so they'll be hella expensive like the old ones, god what a rip
