So right at 3000 lbs. Which wheels and tires?

Everything I have heard was 2900lb so guessing that is a dry weight.

AZ, so what's your goal, I'm going to get my G5 lighter than a Comp Coupe???????
FCA says the original '03 (VRL) Comp Coupe;
Weight 2,995 DRY. They have the VRL body, T-56 trans, BBS Wheels (older versions) and 305/645/18, 345/690/18 Hoosiers.
I pulled out my set up sheet from Ross Murray;
Weight 3024, wet with 8-10 gallons of fuel. World Challenge body, EMCO trans., 6 Piston Brembo Endurance front Calipers, newer 3 piece BBS wheels, 295&345 R7's

hehe, No not really, was just curious, I've always wondered. So yours is about 2980 without gas, nice. Would be 2935 on Pirelli slicks! If you are running a heavy battery you'd be 2899 with a lithium battery and Pirellis.

AZ, I know you like those Pirelli's, just wish the rears were wider and shorter like the Hoosiers.
I think the spec battery for the CC's is the Odyssey PC925. I had to replace mine when I got it. Spec's say their 23.8 lbs, and only cost $149.00 What's the weight and cost on your battery?

BBS (3 pice) with Hoosier Racing S100's. Car is VRL spec. As others have stated 2995 is the weight.

Battery Tender has a 3 lb lithium for $200, I used them for years they work great, they just don't have a lot of reserve. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Deltran-Battery-Tender-26-35A-Lithium-Battery/32833009
I'm now running Doug Shelby's 8 lb lithium batter which has over half the reserve of the factory 38 lb battery, then I don't have to worry about leaving my Smarty Cam on and batter going dead etc. If it's a really important session, I'll throw the 3 pounder back in
