Just wondered if any one might happen to know the weight of a wheel i.e 17" azev a's or maybe a 17" Alpina rep. Not including tyre. Just trying to work out if they are worth buying and shipping down here to OZ!!
Struggle with rims down here and I happen to like those mentioned above !!

Any help muchly appreciated. :mad:

do a search, as I think someone weighed one of the Alpina reps for us about a month ago.

IIRC the wheel alone was about 15kg - the OE BBS 15" wheel weighs 7.5kg FYI (well I had to get that in didn't I? winkeye )

Twice the weight of a OE !! Geez !! I'll see what I can find on a search, do you happen to know if a Azev A is about the same as a Alpina rep!!
