R55 5-star Pace wheel weight / Web spoke weight

I searched and I searched and I didn't find anything.

I did find that 17" crownspokes off MCS are 22lbs (scary).

Anyone wants to help me get the OEM wheel weight thread going?

I won't have the car for another month or so and won't be taking the tires off probably for at least a year, so the best I would be able to do is guesstimate the weight based on the assumption that tire weighs about 20lbs.

Any info is appreciated.

I remember finding a link somewhere and learning that the S-winders weighed in at 17.4 lbs- that's for 16's!

Hopefully someone has the link.

Bookmarked. Thank you.

I'm kinda sad to see that my Pace wheels weigh almost the same as expensive 2-piece web spokes and JCW 17s. I lucked out on that one.

I wish they offered Enkei RPF-01 from the factory. 7lbs/corner difference.
