M2C from 788M to 437M wheels. Weight difference

Got f1? · 07-08-2019, 05:36 PM

Bought a set of 437M wheels from an M3 used with MPSS tires in 255/35 19 front and 275/35 19 rear. While I was swapping them out, I weighed them. This is not scientific since the fronts are brand new and rears about 50% while my original Continentals only had 5k miles.

Fronts were about 1Lb less and rears 2 less. Pretty impressive since the tires are one size in width larger.

Sorry for the crappy pic.

Here's a few more. Hopefully the increased tire size shows. A bit more exposure from width but not much. Not sure the extra width has made it any less tail happy.

"BMW knows what they are doing and tunes everything to work together" The heavier wheels are made to balance the car with the increased s55 power. Fair warning. DO NOT CHANGE THEM!
