The OE wheel weight is listed in this thread. Doubt these BBS are much lighter than stock.

https://rennlist.com/forums/992-gt3-...fibre-bst.html

Also, it has been confirmed that the 265 section tyres fit on the stock front wheels, but wonder if they will fit with the 2 mm less offset on these fronts That would be a deal breaker for me as the GT3RS spec track compound tyres are a much have option.

looks like a couple kg per wheel if u go with 20s. Not completely negligible but not potentially 12 grand of difference.

If they can compete with the HRE R101 Lightweight, it might be interesting, but those match the Mag wheels in weight. For the price, the HRE wheels are hard to beat. I believe they list at less than 10k for the set. The Porsche wheels are really nice wheels and I'd take durability over 1-2 kg any day. Now those new carbon wheels look really interesting and worth a look for the future RS cars.

They are on the way from what I've been told. All they have to do is change the offset 4 mm in the front and 3 mm in the back. The weight is actually with 12.5" wide rears, so the rears will be a tad bit lighter. The 12.5" wide HRE rears weigh 10.5 kg. and the fronts are 8.3 kg. So al in all they match the Porsche Mag wheels for weight.

Pretty sure the Mags are lighter than that. The weights you mentioned are more than the BBS FI-R Evo aluminum (check post #1 in this thread).

Check here for the weights of the Mags for 991 GT3 and RS:

Yes, HRE does make the R101's for the Porsche 992 platform.

The most lightweight alloy wheel will be the BBS Magnesium's followed by the HRE R101 Lightweight's followed by the FI-R Evo.

Did I see somewhere they were making a 20 x 10 et 30 for the GT3-RS?

That would go nice on my GTS with -4.4 camber on front. Hoping to run a 285/30/20 cup2-R from black series Mercedes up front. Probably the 335/30/20 rear on a 20 x 12 et 45 normal Fi-R.

Just run the evo up front. Either 20 x 10 et 30 or 20 x 9.5 et 44. Satin Black

Thoughts?
