TSW Nurburgring 17x9 wheel with nothing on them weighed 18.2 pounds.

The Mounted weight as as follows (no center cap, with valve stem and .5 oz of weights on each wheel)

Front 41.6 pounds with Nitto NT01 235/40/17
Rear 44 pounds with Nitto NT01 255/40/17

I got slightly heavier weight with identical tire (NT01 255/40), did you shave the tire?

My digital scale could be off?

18.2 would be pretty decent for such a inexpensive wheel.

Tires are not shaved. I am getting them this weekend so I will confirm again with my home scale. I was not there in person as the store measured it for me. 18.2 pounds is decent, no complains from me. I have another set of TSW wheels on my other car that ar 15 years old with no problems!

The stock wheels (in my case AP2v2's) are around 18 lbs correct? I REALLY love the styling of these, and thought they were much heavier than 18-19 lbs (I thought they were like 22?).

These are in 18's and too wide for my tastes. I'm only interested in 17x7.5 and 17x9 application you guys are getting on the Nurburgring... Need to find a place that sells the Interlagos. Don't see them on DTD.

They are a little wide but man do they look good. 17x9 all around would be perfect.

I'll love to see a 17x9 fitted to an s2k in the machined finish

Ordered a set today from DTD. Unfortunately the RS-3s are backordered by I have some time left before I need them

I think I got the last set. The guy at DTD said he had just 4 coming into Texas early this month, which is what got mounted on my set.

One more point of comparison: Yellow and Bronze
