Are the original and new ones exactly identical in specs?

Onami

Yes

Or you can get them from RL sponsor rstrada, an official Ruf rep who also chimed in on this thread.

I may have to dip my toe back in the pool someday Love the look but hate that they are so heavy.

Rstrada

New ones are slightly lighter than the older ones. Front is lighter by 0.5 lbs. Rear is lighter by 1.6 lbs. Design is exactly the same.

I searched around and could not find the weights of the 19" RUF wheels - 8 and 10's. Anyone have that?

I'm in Asia at the moment, can weigh them with supersport tires as soon as I get back to Florida.

All I can say is that they are not lightweight.

If anyone is interested in a set of 19" I have a very nice set and would be interested in either selling or trading for a minty set of 18"?

Thanks, but don't bother -not with tires - I have these wheels and have already weighed them with tires and have the approx weight by using the tires published weights - but the only accurate way to weigh the wheels themselves is without tires using a good scale, since tires' published weights and actuals
can vary.

+993, Very nice wheels, but too heavy and and don't forget the required spacers... TechArt Formula GT wheels are significantly lighter (18.7 lbs. front, 23.1 lbs. rear), with no spacers, and the rears are 1/2" wider.

Cactus

I always thought they were heavy.

Did you receive your wheels yet?

Onami

Actually...I cancelled them. They are out of stock and waiting on more. I had already been charged for them, so the Ruf Rep offered to cover my shipping costs, which I thought was very fair. He said that he expected them to arrive by the end of the week. 2 weeks later and still no word on arrival, so I asked for a refund and got one no problem. I'll reconsider once they are in stock.
