That's why I like Rennlist. Thank you

BigMikeATL

No problem, another Rennlister sent it to me. It doesn't have the weight for the 10's but you can figure around 13kg based on the 8's and the other 18x10 wheels.

Not bad actually thought they were even heavier

The weights of the front and rear 964 3.6 Turbo Speedlines are identified in this source:
http://carrerars.wordpress.com/2010/...re-on-offsets/

Compared with the Cup 1 Design 92 front wheels found on the 964 3.3 Turbo, the Speedline wheels found on the front of the 964 3.6 Turbo add almost five pounds of unsprung weight to each of the front axle's corners.

I suspect that Jim Dorociak can provide definitve confirmation of the weights of the front and rear Speedlines of the 964 3.6 Turbo.

Good info, doc.
If I were tracking my car I'd want a lighter and more rigid wheel for sure but for the street the extra weight is the price of fashion, I guess.

Ok, so I am probably the only guy who has a set of Speedline wheels not mounted with tires on the car. Front wheel is 25.6 lbs and rear is 27.4 --

Wow, these suckers are pretty heavy. No doubt they look good though, but that's weight one could even feel during typical driving.

Has anyone ran volk wheels? I want to get another set of lightweight wheels and put some Hoosiers on it. It will be for fun and to change it up now and then. Anyone have good recs for a lightweight wheel? 17 or 18 inch is good

Doc V.

Yup. Add in the tires' weights and the 3.6T rolls a lot of mass at the corners.

If memory serves me right, my Kinesis 18x8.5 weighs approx 20/21 lbs and rears 18x10.5 around 23/24 lbs

It sure does. A bit out of left field, but here is a pic of my 17x9 Fuchs with Hankook track tyres. They would fill out the wheel well. Total weight is 20.9kg (46lbs). The wheel weight on its own is 7.9kg (17.5lbs). I'm almost tempted to see if they fit for a gymkhana this weekend.

I like those 17'' wheels a lot, John McM, particularly given their weight.

Who manufactures them, and what source did you use to get them?

John McM

Doc, these are new Fuchs. Same manufacturer as the Porsche original Fuchs and forged, but new sizes and offsets. These ones fit a N/A 964 with no spacers. I got them directly from the factory http://www.fuchsfelge.de/index.php?id=5&L=1 not cheap, but strong and light.
