guys and girls are the comps a mega heavy wheel for a 17" and how much am i looking for a refurb on them im thinking of taking them to labtec when i eventually get a set so give me a rough price...

i think they are bloody heavy, my car doesn't move with them on :/

what engine you running mate?

iirc they are 19kg

With a tyre so not heavy at all, only 2kg heavier than 17” OZ Superleggeras

f*****g hell ! are you being serious... i had my exors on my other 9n sport and i doubt they weighed anywhere near that! lm reps are like 11kgs lol

Sorry thats with a tyre

am i going to notice a noticeable performance loss with these wheels on?

I cant say I noticed, what engine do you have?

1.9tdi pd 100 but ill be giving it either the 130 or 150 turbo in the summer with other mods for 200bhp
par the power tho is that normal weight for a 17" wheel or more for some reason? would my exors have been similar?

as I've said already, you will notice a slight drop.

They're more than 19kgs with tyres - thing 22kgs. I weighed them myself and have a post on it somewhere. A normal sport wheel is 17kg with tyre or something.

would you say it weighs just as much as a 17" normal wheel?

no

edit: perhaps, after looking at other posts!

With tyre its quite light I would say, 17" BBS RX are 18.6kg and the 6 spoke Ronal ones off a TT are 24kg for example

What tyres that are on them also make a big difference in weight

Here you go:

TT is over 21kg with new tyre, 15" alloy is 16.5kg. Steel wheel is the lightest which is not surprising. If you want performance go for a ultra lightweight 16" alloy.
