Not sure if it's a concern of yours, but you'll probably notice it in your acceleration.

Geez, I never thought about that!!! I guess I just assumed that most aftermarket rims would be at least lighter than stocks. I wonder how I can find out?

I do belive the Breyton's are about 7 pounds heavier per wheel over stock

Just found out...32.7 lbs....Yikes!!! Thanks for saving me from a very bad
purchase.

The spirits look great but Breyton does make some lighter wheels. If weight is a major concern look at BBS.

I have been going through the same thing and the only 9 inch fronts I have in my notes are an AC Schnitzer - 9,0J x 20 offset 22 -- 255/30 R 20 and a Style 149 9 x 20 -- 245/40 R 20 unknown offset.

I am also having trouble convincing a German aftermarket dealer that 275's will fit on the back - something to do with the T?V documents.

What's going on people,

I was ordering some Breyton Spirits in 19's but TireRack is telling me that the dimensions should be 19 x 9 (front) and 19x10 (rear).? I don't have any trouble regarding the rear but doesn't 19 x 9 sound too wide for the front?!?? Going through a lot of your profiles, I see that a lot of you guys (and gals) have 8.5 in the front so I'm worried that these 9's will rub.? Am I just being paranoid?!?? TireRack says that they don't come in 8.5 and the guy says that he just inputs the make/model of the car and his program tells him what sizes are optimal for these rims!? Before you guys make any suggestions, please know that my car is a 530i Sport that is also going to be lowered with Eibach springs so rubbing is a concern.? Thanks fellas.
