Stock PP comes out to around 142.8lbs

Hypothetically speaking, I chose Enkei Raijin from Tire rack as a screw around tire

FRONT
Size: 19x8.5 (O.E. Diameter)
Finish: Black Painted
Weight: 23.0 lbs.
Offset: 35mm

REAR
Size: 19x9.5 (O.E. Diameter)
Finish: Black Painted
Weight: 23.0 lbs.
Offset: 35mm

those came out to 92lbs, basically shaved off 50.8lbs... goddamn!

Of course, just saw the fact that it's packaging + Box for the 35.7lbs, so that theory is shot

For the amount you would spend on AP rotors, wheels, etc you could buy one of Beefcake's supercharger kits and drop 2 seconds off your quarter mile time compared to 2 tenths. Make sure you know your ultimate goal for the mods you are doing before throwing money at it.
1/4 mile times aren't all that important to me. Wheels/ tires will happen regardless. Really the only extra cost vs a supercharger is rotors and driveshaft. But I would just rather do it all at once to maximize the feel I get after the mods. Rotors would be necessary for track days
