Default Weighed my 2019 TTS centerlock rims today.

21.2 Lbs front and 25.4 Lbs rear. I am very impressed with that weight for a forged factory wheel.

I did replace them with BBS F1R's and saved 17.2 Lbs rotational weight. But the factory wheels are impressive.

Very Nice ! The F1R's weigh 17.4 Lbs front and 20.6 Lbs rear. Nice mod. Brought my total weight with a full tank of fuel down to 3486Lbs.

Indeed OEM BBS wheels for Turbo, GTS are quite Light but BBS FIR is on a different league.

I would be be interested in the factory turbo centerlock wheels if you were selling them.

Was 1 1/2 years ago so my memory is fuzzy.... I think right at $9k for the set. Bought from @SamboTT@ByDesign

I’ve wasted a lot of money over the last 40 years on wheels. These are by far my favorite. Would buy again.

Onfire, I have weighed my stock wheels and went to Fir’s as well and was surprised by how light the stock wheels were. On my previous 5 lug stock wheel the weight difference was much greater. The overall weight of your car 3486, is that with hardtop and do you have inconel exhaust?
