When you getting them on Allen? Will you weigh one before putting tyre on? They do quote 9kg's. Pics , pics please. :D

Not got them yet but I have a bare OEM wheel waiting to be weighed back to back with the new wheels :)

Wheels just arrived at work. Quick delivery :)

Still not sure on tyres. I have F1 Assymetrics in 225 just now, but I fancy something sticky and possibly in a 235 configuration, but I defo want rim protectors.

Suggestions welcome :)

My TD monza's are 45mm offset close on the front arches, back are fine with 5mm spacers my cars not lowered as yet but I don't think there would be an issue.

toyo r888 - 235 / 40 / 18 :d

Nice if you can afford them, and afford to keep replacing them :p

Im getting some trackday tyres sorted so will be a few weeks. going for 235's and car is lowered alot, so interesting to see how it fit. Im prepared to mod the arches if I have issues tc.

And the weight according to my bathroom scales and two bits of wood are

OEM wheel - 26.5lbs
Pro Race 1.2 - 20.5lbs

Thats a saving of 6lbs per wheel or 24lbs of unsprung weight.
