the AUDM dc3r wheels should be lighter than 5 kgs .. i weighed them next to me rota c10.. my c10 were 5.5kg i used an electronic scale.. but the itr was way lighter

[EKNR33]

13kg for stock EM1 rims sounds heavy! Thats with tyres isn't it DOCH16?

These aren't LIGHT by far just to give people a rough idea

16" Stock Nissan R33/S14 Rims 16x6.5"jj weights 8.5kg (without tyres)
17" Sparcos with tyres 20kg (with tyres) 10kg (withouttyres 17x9"jj tho)
18" DTM rims Shadow Chrome deep dish 24kg (with new FALKEN tyres 265/35/18) HEAVY!! made my car 1 sec slower 0-100km/h

really 15" dc2r wheels are less than 5.5kg? can some one confirm this?

[Limbo]

Mate mine are less than 5kg each (TOMs).
Light RIMS are supose to help with handling as there is less rotational force.
Learnt that from the new Best Motoring DVD with the NEW EVO 8.

Yeah the dc2r are about 5.5kg i had a set. They aren't bad at all. I believe the s2000 rims are about 5kg which are a touch lighter.

Note they are currently for sale with dunlop FM901

[0098]

what are some light tyre brands if such a thing exists

[type one]

tyres are tyres man.

[BlitZ]

proabably one with shit side walls and low on compound.. but it kinda defeats the purpose

[type one]

ITR 15" is not lighter than 5kg... just over in fact.

[EK Civic R]

I thought the DC2R wheels were about 7.7kg... ~~;

[type one]

nooooooo....definitely not. Not even the 16's are that heavy.

[ONV73C]

not true - there is lots of variations (even 1kg+) in the weight of tyres of the same size
