    Default Official weights for 18" RD Wheels

    Official weights for 18" RD Wheels 18x8.5 - 25.3 lbs 18x9.5 - 26.1 lbs These are considered light alloy wheels, and with a few exceptions (BBS and Kosei)), are going to save a substantial amount of unsprung weight from each corner. We all know a forged wheel would be the lightest wheel possible, but these wheels are manufactured using the casting method, just like Rondell, Momo, most OE BMW wheels, and every replica wheel, except these weigh much less. $910+ shipping and a $100 goes to AlanS ....only 3 sets left, then it will be another 60 days before I can get anymore. Racing Dynamics is out of stock so they have to manufactured and then shipped.

    I hear ya, but unfortunately the aftermarket companies are not making anything in 17", only 18" and 19". I know RD makes a 1 pc forged wheel in 19". the 19x8.5 weighs 16lbs, the 19x10 16.3 lbs
