SSR Intregals II 7 x 17 6.5kgs (Forged) Compomotive MO 7 x 15 et 12 9kgs (Clearly not forged) Great thread, but what a disappointment. I had hoped that the Compomotive's would be lighter than 9kg's each. And that's before I put the bloody treble eights on!! Over 18kgs per corner........
BBS Solitude (VR6 fitment) 6.5x15 ET43 5/100 weight without tyres, centre cap or balancing weights = 7.2kg weighed on bathroom scales that are pretty accurate.
not a chance I'm afraid, as much as i hoped otherwise these are 10-10.5kg any day of the week according to my measurements and others too! ET32 btw as well
Anniversary edition 7.5 x 18 BBS RC (with VAG part number stamped on it) = 9.9Kg's. BBS RC (as supplied by BBS direct - no VAG number) 8 x 18. = 9Kg's. Eagle Asymmetric 225/40/18 tyre = 10.1Kg Damn tyres weigh more than the wheels....
I weighed my Oz Superleggera 7 * 15, et37, 4 * 100 wheels on the bathroom scale. Still covered in crap, wheel weights, etc, and they came in at 5.3kg. A clean and no wheel weights will see them at 5kg ish, on a not so accurate bathroom scale.
Hey up Tom! Why aren't these on the R 16 list? http://www.clubgti.co.uk/forum/showpost.php?p=1889475&postcount=60 Is it cos I forgot to state - 5 x 112?
There was no ET or PCB and you never stated if the scales had been zeroed to the weight of that heavy farmers twine/wire - so I decided that the figures were grossly inaccurate and just ignored them.
Oh yeah! But you are willing to post figures from bathroom scales! BBS Forged Wheels (BY FUCHS) and Fuchs own wheels, should always take pride of place, in any list of round things. You had better put the 8 x 17 Old Skool RGs on the list! If I ever find any![:^(]
OK OK, stop grovelling, ill add it to the list And just for you I have moved most of it into alphabetical order.
Alfa Teledials 16", 5x98, et 41.5, acid dipped. 9.2kg (digi scales weighed with 2 different methods) Not going to be any use to most but thought I would add it anyway.
My old now spare wheels BBS splits 512's 7.5 x 17 et35 Around 9kg My Volk/Rays TE37 16"x 7" et33 Are 5.23.kg's
I took the tyres off a couple of Audi Pepperpots today. I knew they were light even with the tyres still on as they were noticeably lighter than various other wheel tyre combos lying around the gaff. But 5.8kg without plastic centre caps 15" x 6J 5 x 100 PCD ET38 5 stud FTW!!
I picked up some Compomotive TH mono's after gti international yesterday. I whipped the tyres off today so i weighed 1 15x8J et25 4 stud 8.76kg using a digital scale hanging off my garage roof
