Lovely wheel. Reminds me slightly of something by OZ  :wink:

If 7.5 x 18 weighs 7.9 Kg, I wonder what 8 x 18 weighs.

They don't do 8 x 18, but the 7.5 x 18, weigh in at 17.4 pounds / 7.9 kilograms each (see first post). Not bad really.

Does the weight loss make a tangible difference to the way the car feels and drives?

Before we all get giddy - forged = big bucks.

Still not as light as my magnesium wheels of win though.....  :innocent:

I believe it does the less up-sprung weight the better! :smiley:

....If these TD 7.5 x 18 weigh 7.9 Kg then I'm thinking that their 8 x 18 (if they did one) might be pretty similar to the OZ Alleggerita 8 x 18 which weigh 8.03 Kg. It's not important but just of geekintrest.

....It most definitely does make a significant difference to how the car feels and drives. That's why I changed my wheels.
