Just curious, everyone says that 348 wheels are nasty heavy items, does anyone have any info on exactly how much they weigh?

To be honest I've not even consideredd the weight of them, and didn't really notice much between my Beemer wheels to these.
others have changed over to genuine 355 magnesium alloys which are said to be about half the weight of 348alloys. Nice as the 355 ones are, I wouldn't change, it's part of the car along with the side strakes and rear light grill.....a set of gtcomp alloys might persuade me though. tongue out
