Yeah... not sure about the difference though.

hmm (thinking in typing), if a OZ leggera weighs 4.9, thats 2.5 per wheel less. 10kg overall.

still 10kg off my target of 900.

Good work.

The 106 GTi rims are lighter for sure, but I can't say by how much... Different tyres will weigh different amounts. Racing tyres will be a fair amount heavier than standard tyres also.
