Default need comments for ruf rim and H&R coil spring!

Thinking of replacing a set of RUF 18" rim, does anyone know about its weight? Any suggestion for H&R coil spring set? Appreciate for any comments!

In my opinion the Ruf speedline 18inch rims look ok. However given the option, I'd go for the BBS multispoke 3 piece rim in gold.

Certainly good choice! Sameer! The Ruf 18" seems made by OZ. Any difference? How much pounds or Kg it weights? By the way, any advise for H&R coil spring, mine is 91C2 turbo. Thanks a lot!

I hear the Ruf rims are quite heavy. However I'm a big Ruf fan and would either go with the BBS(which looks bloody good) or the Ruf OZ rims. Sorry the 17inch were speedlines. Not to sure on the 18inch.

My RUF Rims are 18" speedlines and are quite heavy. I don't know the weight but they are about errrnnnk from memory last time I lifted them.

The wheel nuts weigh nothing tho.

My guess is Ruf may have authoritzd several rim makers to help them manufacture. By the way, how about H&R coil spring?

I have no idea on the H&R springs but here pretty good reviews on them. Why dont you just go for the Ruf shocks and springs. You cant go wrong.

My 17inch are stamped Ruf Speedline too. I heard that mine were made by Spedline in Italy and in limited production which is why you cant find them around these days.
