Default ZR1 Chrome Wheels and Spoiler (pics and weights)
I finally got my ZR1 chrome wheels installed along with the ZR1 Rear Spoiler.

One of the deterrents to reproduction wheels has been their heavier weight. For this reason, I chose the PS2 ZP tires (now the OEM tire for the actual ZR1) which are a bit lighter than the OEM Goodyear tires on my 07. Anticipating questions about the weight, I weighed each tire/wheel (30 psi) as I swapped them:

Rear Left OEM (5 spoke chrome with Goodyear Eagle F1 tire): 62.2 lbs
Rear Left ZR1 chrome with PS2 ZP: 60.2 lb s
Rear Right OEM: 61.4 lbs
Rear Right ZR1: 59.8 lbs
Front Left OEM: 52.4 lbs
Front Left ZR1: 51.4 lb s
Front Right OEM: 51.6 lbs
Front Right ZR1: 51.6 lbs

I was pleased to see that I was able to actually shed a few pounds with this combination.

Here are some pics:

Awesome, very sweet ride, I love the chrome on the Victory Red. I may have to put those tires on my car when the GY tread out. Thanks for posting the pics.
