Did you have those painted after purchase or are there custom finishing options from OZ?

Aren't the BBS MTSP Motorsport Wheels 12"? I would think they are.

Yes, they are. 9" front and 12" rear.

The stock wheels are pretty heavy given that the Porsche marketing material specifies that they're lightweight wheels.

I have these weights for stock OEM 997.2 GT3 Centerlocks:

Front: 997.362.157.95 ... 8.5 x 19 ... ET53 = 23.5 lbs

Rear: 997.362.165.90 ... 12 x 19 ... ET63 = 28 lbs
