Does anyone know the weight of the 19 & 20 inch base wheels, Carrera S, vs Carrera classic wheels? In the 991, my recollection is that Carrera S wheels were lightest.
I had experience carrying both 19/20 & 20/21 when doing seasonal swapping recently. The 20/21 definitely feels lighter than 19/20. However I didnt weigh them on a scale.

Agreed, I haven't weighed them, but my 20/21 RS Spyder Design summer set feel lighter than the Base Carrera 19/20s that I have for winter. Difference could be in the tire, but it's large enough that the it's more likely the wheel.
Wondering if anyone had stumbled across any technical specs on wheel options, that show actual bare weights, since this thread was first posted.
Anyone know bare weights for each 992 wheel option (not what looks best, not with tires, but actual wheel weights)?
Figured I might as well as in case...
For some reason no one has taken the time to actually do this, and Porsche apparently doesn't want to publicize this info.
I went through this exact same thing when looking for wheel options on my 991.2; they'll show you every official stat you need for fitment, but weight is curiously nowhere to be found... some intrepid enthusiast is going to have to pull the tires off and put these things on a scale for us all to get what we deserve...

The Truth.
Just pull the wheel off and measure the combined weight of the tire and wheel. The tire weight can be easily obtained so that you can subtract it. Obviously do it on a newish car to eliminate any tire weight loss due to wear.
