Wheel weight
 

Having a "geek day". Thought I would weigh my 18" superleggera with tyre (215/35), and compare it with an OEM 16" five spoke alloy (circa MY98 spec) with tyre (205/50). Tyres have roughly same amount of tread.

Superleggera/tyre 16.3kg
OEM/tyre 17.2kg.

Nice to know how light my alloys are!

not sure if that's good or bad. Come on guys get your wheels weighed!!!!!! :ugeek:

Re: Wheel weight
 

Good to know Rich. As mine are a lightweight wheel I would expect your TDs to be heavier - no disrespect.

Perhaps we should provide a "wheel-weigh service" at each meet from now on?

Re: Wheel weight
 

Mine are flow formed PFF7's so should be lighter still.

Probably the wrong colour i.e Bright Flitter (Subaru Option PFF7) rather then WR-1 Standard Fit PFF7 (Darker/Greyer)
