I am trying to decide if I should get orig. cup I's vs aftermarket (tirerack, MM cups). I like the look of the offset of the MM cups, but they are 26lbs.

What is the weight of orig cups I's does anyone know? I can't seem to find it searching the threads.

Anyone car to sway me one way or the other?

I would go as light as possible. Mine are something like 70-71lbs for the whole set of 4, and they are 8.5 and 10x18.....D90's are light, not sure on the Cup I's...but these weights have been posted before I am pretty sure....

Can't find them on wheelweights.com either. ;-(

John - Nice site. Thx!

So it appears that:

17" Cup I's: ~25lbs
17" MM Cups: ~26lbs,
17" Magnesium RS Cup I's: ~19lbs
17" Cup II's: ~22lbs

I didn't know the Cup II's were so light.

Cup IIs are 19 and 22 lbs (7" and 9"). An old thread with weight information here

I think Cup 1s look better, but use Cup 2s for track wheels because they are lighter.

Me too, but I am thinking I will just keep my d90's for the street wheels, and get another set for the track. I am just trying to figure out what is the best bang for the buck.
