Find me a wheel that's as light and strong that doesn't need a lottery win  :sad1:

Would love 18" Ronal seatcopa wheels or OZ ultraleggera HLT

Just read up on them.
"Reducing unsprung weight thanks to its low mass and improving airflow, Keeping brakes at optimum across many core Japanese and European fitments means there should be one for your car. Massive caliper clearance is ensured by our design house and Brembo's are swallowed as if they were not there at all."

can't find a weight for them though.

^^^^
18" Team Dynamics are a fraction over 9kg and my OZ Alleggerita's are a fraction over 8kg, so I'd guess they are between 8-9kg.

Whether 8 or 9kg it makes a significant difference to steering feedback. But we shouldn't be telling Mike that or he'll want some!  :evilgrin:

Just for reference, the GTI 18" Monza's are a fraction over 11kg.

I've weighed them all on a friend's DEFRA certified (annually) digital scales (used for fishing club competitions).
