Konig Hypergram 17x8 +40 16.8lbs, Hankook Evo2 215/45/17 19.3lbs
Here are my Konig Hypergrams 16.8lbs. Also Hankook Evo2 tires stock size weight 19.3 lbs! People forget tire weight is more important being farthest on the outside. Went with this setup for lightweight performance over stanced oversized look. I went big with my Vette as its easier to make power on the ls motors. I'd only do big wheels and BBK on this car if I went forced induction.
Also did lightweight pulleys at the same time and waited to drive until they were on the same time. Man it pulls so much quicker and the revs climb faster! Enjoy!

Basically the reason I went with a 36lb setup of 17x7.5 +40mm Enkei Fujin wheels and 205/45-17 Continental Extremecontact DW tires... more responsiveness while also more stability at the same time.
