Sounds like corporate speak considering the 350s have the larger brakes also ....
I am really curious why no press cars have the carbon fiber wheels .....
Yea the manual DH is about 200 lbs heavier than the GT350 and I think the brakes are similar size.

However, I keep forgetting about these carbon wheels. My estimates put the DH Handling Pack wheels at about 33lbs. I thought the GT350R carbon wheels were less than 20lbs. On any account I am not really planning on modding the car but I have experienced light weight wheels on other cars and boy they can make a difference. I wouldn't do carbon, I would do forged aluminum such as a Klassen ID monoblock. But I am very anxious to see some test/reviews of the carbon wheels on this car.
