If you can afford them, go for it. You can get those on the Callaway Corvette for only $9495 but that includes tires. Here is a link.

Here is a picture, go down to Wheel and Tire Package

I'm guessing they will run you somewhere around $7000 to $8000 for the set. You have probably picked the most expensive wheel on the market. At least one of the most expensive.

Hey guys,



I can't believe you found those. OMG, I'm not really paying for them, my bonus is "Woot". What kind of performance gains do you think this should give me?

Wow,

Guess its just going to be regular wheels then, lol. There's not much though for tuning for the CobaltT as of yet besides the Hahns PPC tuner and HP Tuners new software. I hate being in Hawaii. If I were back in the states I would be able to hang with some of you guys.

What are some good lightweight wheels out there. I have googled but none have showed weight. Also, does anyone know how heavy the Cobalt TC 18" rims are? Thanks
