Target weight for 15\" wheel and tyre

Postby bark » Fri Oct 05, 2007 7:45 pm

Hi All,

What is the target weight that we should aim for on a NA6 in a 15\"?

I have found a rim and tyre that weighs 15kg, is this too heavy, acceptable or...?

Thanks

14.1Kg on mine with 205/50x15s.

I doubt you could get much lighter than that and I doubt anyone could feel any difference between that and 15Kg.
