Does anyone know the weight difference between the CF Wheel and the forged wheel?

The full set is a little over 9 kilos lighter.
 
So 5lbs per Wheel? That's amazing!

Sorry, I don't know the distribution, I just know the total weights of the sets. But the average is about 5 lbs. Ti lugs are worth about another 2 lbs total but won't be as big of an effect as the mass is at the center of the wheel.
 
the titanium lug nuts will still reduce overall unsprung weight. Pretty amazing if 20 " little lug nuts" reduce wt by 2 lbs.!

Cool video! Is any part of the GT assembled in MI? The engine I assume. How about paint?

They mention Roush as helping. Was that with the engine?
