Hmmm. Yeah, no. lol I'm really happy to find that Pontiac wheel though. Now that I have my '11 Genesis Coupe and I'm thinking about changing its stock wheels to lighter ones (both are 18") (the stocks weigh about 25 lbs in the front and 29 in the rear) that weigh between 17-18 lbs, I'm now thinking about their aero dynamics.
Here is a link to the
wheels I'm looking at possibly getting in the future. They are by no means aerodynamic but they weight 50%+ less than my stock wheels. Is there a possibility of them improving my fuel economy at highway speeds or would I really only notice a gain (due to less weight) at city speeds?
Here's a link to the
picture of the stock wheel.
Edit: oddly enough, these wheels I'm thinking about buying have a lip that if I for some reason wanted to add pizza pans to them to make them aerodynamic I probably could.
Of course, people would probably give me odd looks when they see pizza pans on a new sports car. lol
