Default AP2 V3 Rim Weight

After searching for over an hour and finding no information on how much AP2V3 rims weigh, I weighed my CR rims today after having the tires dismounted at Evasive.

19.2 front and 21.4 rear! Please be aware that I hadn't taken any balancing weights off, and TPMS/valvesteps were still on the rims.

I would imagine the non-CR wheels are the same.

Actually it's not...that's pretty damn good for a cast iron OEM wheel. Read what he said again.

I was under the impression AP1 rims + tire weights about the same AP2s + tires.

I have the V2's and they are 17.5 front and 20.5 rear.The fronts were about the same as my ap1's,but the rears felt at least 5lbs heavier.The car is a little more sluggish now.
