Wow, my stock 94 GLX BBS wheels (1 year only I believe on the early
German cars) with tire weigh about 23 lbs with 205-50-15 SP4000's. They
are very lightweight wheels. I had a set of Koenig's in a 17" with 215-40
tires (Nitto) that weighed over 40 lbs each. They basically ruined the
ride. Sold em.
