For an OE wheel, that's quite light for the size, especially considering the standards wheels sold in Germany (TUF?) have to adhere to. To put it in perspective, coming from the Mazda world, here are a few OE Mazda wheels
Mazda3 17x6.5+52 = 21lbs Mazdaspeed3 18x7+5x = 26lbs US-Spec FD Rx7 16x8, which was praised for it's lightness for a production car = 16lbs IIRC |

However, the other thought is that it is about the suspension behaviour when reducing unsprung that people are talking about the x5 x10 improvements. Quote:

Z4M wheels are in the 26lb range.
If you want real, track proven wheels go APEX. Their ARC8 wheels can be had for close to 18-19lbs in 17" sizes. The EC7s are a bit heavier |

At the very least go with a 9" up front or 9.5" . I put some 19x8 E46 m3 wheels on my car for a day to pass an inspection. They looked ok in the rear at 19x9.5 but the fronts looked horrible. Wrong offset and super skinny wheel and tire. |

I'm not sure that's right. The 220 are 1/2 narrwer but come it at about 23.3 lbs front and 25.5 lbs rear.
http://www.m3post.com/forums/showpos...&postcount=306 So about 8 lbs lighter per set v. #359. I also understand the 220 are forged and the 359 are not. Quote:
