CSL Wheel weights

phat///M3 · 14-10-2009, 08:43 AM

Anyone know how much a front alloy and rear alloy with a tire on weigh?

I know most tires will have a slightly different weight but its just to get a general idea, as I was looking on ebay and one guy is quoting a front rim (albeit with a tire) to weigh 10.5 KG which seems a bit on the light side.

There was a thread about this a while back with a spreadsheet detailing different brands/makes of wheels. I just tried to find it but no luck.

IIRC fronts were around 11kg, rears nearer 13kg?

I think Mark may well be able to help.

Thanks Glendog, hopefully someone will know the exact answer, I need it to get a shipping quote.

Have you tried Silver Wolf? They've done the trip for me a few times (Just left Spain actually after 17 years, Mijas but working in Marbella). In the past they've took my ZX6r to Spain, 335i to and from Spain, and moved a ton of stuff back.

They usually come through quite cheap and have been good so far.
