Hey All,
I dont have any access to scales myself so I was wondering if anyone has a rough idea as what each of the 16 inch GTI rims weigh?
Im trying to calculate the weight difference in regards to getting 17's.
Cheers

I got VW 17s on. I don't notice any difference from when I test drove it with the 16s. With bigger wheels comes lower tyres, which could account for some of the extra weight, I dunno?
Heavier 17" wheels make the car slower for sure...
06 Polo GTI - REVO Stage 2 = 140kw @ wheels.
06 Golf GTI - Bluefin Stage 1 blacked out with ED30 theme, leather, xenon, etc.
