Z4M OEM Wheels Weight?

Hey guys,

Did the search function but nothing. . . Just purchase Volk RE-30 18x8 18x9.5. The RE-30 weight 17lbs F 18lbs R. Just wondering what kind of weight savings I gained.

Thanks!

I believe the OEMs are:

Front = 24.75
Rear = 25.88

Within the last week or two on one of the Z specific forums, someone posted a link to a European (German?) site which had all the oem wheel specs. For the M wheel (Style 224) it listed the fronts as 27.0 and rears as 31.4 pounds. Original listing was in kg and I converted. Sorry I can't remember the link or forum.

Very helpful site for offsets, though I'm not sure how accurate their weights are. Style 203, 202, and 135 wheels are all listed as 11,23 kg (24.76 lbs) front and 11,93 kg (26.30 lbs) back, and that sort of precision seems unlikely given that they are all pretty different designs. I weighed a set of style 135 wheels and they were closer to 28/29 lbs. This was backed up by a post on e46fanatics.
