Never mind all that weight saving rubbish, just think how cool a phat set of TE37s would look.

I'm afraid I can't answer your question directly, but I was surprised at how heavy my TE37s were, but then they are massive and I am weedy.

 

May not be as much as you think, don't forget there is more metal in the 18s. The mag ones are a lot lighter but not great if you hit potholes! It's definitely worth seeking out lighter wheels if you can though. My 18" OZ Superleggera are lighter than the stock 16" units on my GT4, the superleggera is a very light design. I really wanted some Advan model 6 as they are also v light (hollow spokes IIRC) but couldn't find the right offset etc for the '4.

 

TE37's are HEAVY wheels. I dont have the exact figures with me now however I compared them to the stock GTR34 rims and the weight was almost the same. 18x9.5

 

AFAIK CE28n's are lighter.

I think DCD weighed them in 19x9.5J size with the stock R34 wheels, and they were lighter considering the extra inch in diameter plus 0.5" width

 

Yep they were, 9.0Kg vs 9.3 for the stock 18s. TE37s wuld have been more than half a Kg heavier, hence why I had to go for the CEs(and the fact that they are not owned by 90% of the GTR owning public)

 

Here is the example of weight comparison in case of Mazda RX8.

Wheel: Standard 1675+50
Tyre: Bridgestone RE040 225/55R16 94V
Weight: 19.4kgs

Wheel: Standard 1880+50
Tyre: Bridgestone RE040 225/45ZR18 91W
Weight: 20.2kgs

Wheel: Rays Volk Racing LE37T 1780+40
Tyre: Yokohama DNA GP 225/50ZR17 94V
Weight: 19.4kgs

Wheel: Rays Volk Racing LE37T 1885+40
Tyre: Yokohama Advan Neova AD07 225/45ZR18 91W
Weight: 18.6kgs

Wheel: Rays Volk Racing CE28N 1980+43
Tyre: Michelin Pilot Sports 225/40ZR19 96Y
Weight: 18.4kgs

TE37's 18" are 7.76kg each rim without tyre I believe

There was an article in a mag down here on this subject.

There were some nice shots of your car in it as well.

Just wondering whether you are aware or not
