Not sure but it's somewhere in the mid 8s (kilograms) I've been told by Wheel supplier...but they feel lighter than that. To my arms they feel more like 7kgs (all I know is there's way more steering feedback now).... OEM 19s are bricks by comparison.
This is a pic of a 19x9.5 test wheel I picked up prior to ordering them. I could easily lift them above my head one handed several times like it was a 5kg dumbbell so yes ... They are light. Definitely felt as light as my RE30 club sports. Unfortunately I wasn't there for figment so couldn't weigh them.

U should toss one on a bathroom scale

[Seattle squash]

Or just throw it across a field! You know you want to.

Tyres on already. Wasn't with car when tyres and rims went on. I'm just going to say they're at minimum 8.5kg

[Badtoyz]

Decent. What are they? Volk...

[800088]

ZE40s

[bshanna]

i'll be getting my 5th wheel on tuesday, i'll weigh it when it comes.

[800088]

Do you carry your spare on trips bshanna?

[bshanna]

Well, i ordered it with my original wheels a year ago and it came damaged and i've been waiting 7 months for the replacement to come so i haven't had a chance to take it on a trip :( Mostly i got it so i didn't have to wait 7 months for a replacement if something happened to one on the car though.

I love your car btw!

[Badtoyz]

800088 I'm looking onto these rims what did u get for hub bore? Did u use the rings?

[bshanna]

Volk will provide the rings. They are only available in one bore (in our bolt pattern) - 73.1

[800088]

7months wait? Wtf. I waited around 7 weeks lol ... I think I may do the same & get a spare for road trips. Stick it up on top the roof pod

[bshanna]

yah i got the first batch available originally (actually ordered before the 19" came out officially), then they said they needed another run to replace my fifth wheel. That was back in February :( It actually got delivered today!

[bshanna]

19.5 lbs (8.85kg) on my scale that only reads in half pound increments.

Thays totally respectable for a rim that strong at 19x9.5

Let me know if you need any mods/parts that are easy to carry, my brother is coming here next week if you want me to send something back with him back to Sweden. Feels like the market is bigger here but I could be wrong.

Ha det killen!

Really looks sharp - perfect stance.

Another quick question - what is that you have on the driver's side vent to the left of the binnacle?

P3 Vent guage

[badbluers4]

Little less stretch on the tires, and it would be perfect for me. 255 on a 9.5 ouch...

[Swiss Bluemoon]

Not roll fenders and I have not adjustable front upper control Arms, but with 25.25 ride height camber is -2° front...

Yes you are probably right, I did not realize before mounting, the next time I try 265/30/20 94Y (3 lbs heavier...)
But I'm not sure, to be able to keep the same height with 265...


Yes bbeast P3 gauge

[highPSI-S4]

Car is super clean Swiss! Great mod choices!

Your car is beautiful. I especially like what you've done to the interior. The way they made the leather appear to have a carbon fiber weave is a really nice touch.

I also really like the areas you added the alcantara. Underside of dash, plastic areas of seats, etc. Can you give any detail on that specifically? I've considered doing something similar to my car.

I have not done this work myself (with my hands...), but basically Alcantara is simply glued on the EOM parts. I have no picture on this job, but I can put some additional pics ...
