Does anyone know the specific weight of BMW style 135 / style 172 rims?
How is it compared to BBS RS-GT?

BBS RS GT weighs: 21.9lbs on 19"x8.5j" and 22.5lbs +- on 19x10.0j"
23.4 lbs on 20"x8.5j" and 25.1lbs on 20"x10.0j"
I should have weighed the 19" 172Ms before I sent to you
but they are not that heavy.. should be closeweight compare to RSGTs..

My Ride: 07 BMW 525i Premium Package, Xenon Lighting Package, manual Transmission. Titanium Grey, 20% Tint around the back, 70% V-Kool on front.
Planned mods: Style 71 wheels with Toyo Proxy 4 tires, Sachs suspension upgrade, upgraded stereo, and many more to come.
I don't have style 135, 172, nor RS-GT, but I got the 19" RGR.
Based on my bathroom scale, I got 42-43 lbs for the front (19"x9" with 245/35/19 General UHP), and 46-47 for the rear (19"x10" with 275/30/19). UHP tires specs listed 22.6 for front, and 25 for rear. So seems like RGR is about ~20-21 lb for front and ~21-22 lb for rear, which is similar to what tirerack listed for.
Since RS-GT is 3 pieces, I think it's at least as light as the RGR, if not lighter?
