The "other" 396...with a factory turbocharger

[njsteve]

I found those next generation 16" 2500 wheels on ebay really cheap a couple months ago. They were brand new take offs removed from a truck back in 2002 and sat in some lady's garage til she got cleanin' one day and wanted them gone.

The unsprung weight difference is amazing. I think these aluminum wheels are 9 lbs each versus the steelies which were 30 lbs each. It was instantly noticeable when accelerating, that these wheels were lighter. It was like swapping a out 120 lb flywheel for a 36 lb one.
