gjm 3258 Report post Posted February 14, 2015 Specifically, I'm interested n the weight for an ACS (Ronal) 17x8 et38, but I thought this might become a useful resource for other rims too? I think these are Type 1s? Lots of (mis)information around. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toast 117 Report post Posted February 15, 2015 (edited) The only information I've found on them came from another forum stating that they weighed 10.4kg. I wouldn't trust this but is sounds about right. The wheel you posted is a type 2 shape. Personally I've been looking for the weight of BBS DTM RG218 shape, best I've found is some Russian and Japanese sauces claiming 8.4kg I hate looking for stuff on wheels made in the 90's, next to nothing online about them that isn't hearsay. Maybe have the mods move this to Wheels & Tyres? Edited February 15, 2015 by Toast Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Toast 117 Report post Posted February 15, 2015 Thanks! I wasn't sure if they'd reply to something as mundane as second hand, discontinued wheel weights. But if it worked for you I hope it'll work for me Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gjm 3258 Report post Posted February 15, 2015 (edited) Apologies - this should be in the wheels and round black stuff section. If a mod sees this, please could they move the thread...? I found a wheel weights list, and have added several hundred more to it. Can't upload it here, and at nearly 4600 lines long I'm not going to copy and paste it! So, I've uploaded it here. Doesn't answer my question, unfortunately, but may help others. Edited February 15, 2015 by gjm Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gjm 3258 Report post Posted February 15, 2015 3pedals you must be new here Gjm I've found another sauce that has the type 2 in 17x8.5 fitment weighing 9.9kg, found here Soo many conflicting numbers, just buy them and weigh them for a solid answer When I was sorting through lists, I found some surprising differences, but these were often subtly different rims. BBS are a particular example. Chrome, anodizing, painting - the difference for a 17x8 rim was quoted as up to 2lbs, despite the rim being of apparently identical structure. I used to run 17x8 and 17x10.5 Oz Futuras on a Porsche 928. When I rebuilt the rims, I used new titanium bolts to replace the steels used originally. Aluminium is lighter still, but has less corrosion resistance, an important consideration on UK roads. The bolts weighed just under half as much. Opting for a polished rather than painted finish saved more weight - end result was something over 2lbs per rim. This is academic. The tyre choice makes a significant difference. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
