I made this thread on the SHO forum and that thread seems to be dead. Idea is to help people figure out what wheel and tire options are but also if it will reduce unsprung weight.

Stock 20 Inch wheels 2010-12
Size - 20" X 8.0"
Offest - 39mm
Weight - 32lb
Tire size - 245 / 45 / 20 (default)


Stock 20 Inch wheels 2013+
Size - 20" X 8.0"
Offest - 39mm
Weight - 34lb
Tire size - 245 / 45 / 20 (default)

FYI, I ran the part number for the 20" wheel on my 2013 here at work, and the weight for the wheel alone is 34lbs. just in case anyone cared!
 
Has anyone with the Wilwood brake kit put on some aftermarket rims? I know that the stock 20" rims don't give the clearance needed and have to be spaced out, but I have been trying to figure out what would be needed to fit them behind an aftermarket rim.

I know that offset can effect the room behind the face of the rim, but that is not the only factor I feel that it is largely based off of the style of rim that you have. Offset is only the location of the hub to the centerline of the rim but that has nothing to do with where the face of the rim will be located (whether it is a deep well rim or not) I was having a difficult time explaining this to a couple buddies in person so I am unsure if this makes sense to read but I would like to get some aftermarket rims that would give me room for a brake upgrade if I decide to in the future.

Thank you for any help on the subject ahead of time I know that this is an extremely debatable topic..
