As i got the Fiat stilo wheels in i decided to put them on a scale to check their weight. Same with the 5 spoke speedlines.
16 inch 7J black speedlines: 8,7 kg.
17 inch 7J stilo wheels: 10,8 kg

Presumably this is without tyre fitted.
Does the weight of the wheels make a big difference to the acceleration response? I expect it would when starting from a stand still...

I just took delivery of my new wheels today. they are 16x7 ET38 and weigh 7.5kg each - (without the center plastic bit (it weighs 100gms..)).
and only $200. each AUD.. Thats about 50p in UK money
I am having them powder coated a 'metallic charcoal' color before I put them on the car. Should look good with the 'red' 166 Brembos. Looks like a lot of clearance with the original calipers and rotors - but its a tight fit with the 166 stuff on.

I am also busy with some 7,9 kg 7J 17inch wheels in 4*98.
Should cost me 350 euro for a set(4) with some help abroad.
And they should have even more clearance for brakes.
After i picked what i like, probably will say good bye to 2 sets of speedlines.
just got my new wheels back from the powder coating place!
you are lucky to live in australia ! Or some q4 would be whitout wheels fast!
I swear i didnt do it!
The O.Z. Racing are quite good when it come sto weight. I have the Superleggera 7x16 and they are about 6,7-6,8 kg eack. The current Ultraleggera are 6,46 kg each!

I got the other set in today.
7*17 inch Rimstock pro Race 1.2 And they are 8.1 kg each. (On the site it says 7.9 kg but i don't mind.)
Plus even the template for the D2 brakes fits easily!
For anybody looking to fit big brakes they are worth a look.
