Widening OEM PP Wheels (19x11)

[1crazymach]

I had the rear wheels widened to 11 inches as well and had the nitto drag radials mounted. I didnt weigh them though. I went ahead and am going to have the fronts narrowed to 5 inches. I thought tires were going to be an issue but turns out the bmw i3 is using a 19x5 rim with 155x70x19's.

Pics?

69 (or 68) pounds! That's nuts.

Then again, those stock wheels are crazy heavy.

Eliminating the stock exhaust for a full SW exhaust saved me many more times than ~5lbs gained on each side.

So, overall I'm very happy with the outcome. I just can't wait until she's lowered.

Rotating mass tho.

Not criticizing. Looks good. It's just that the stock pp rims are heavy pigs to begin with.

5lbs, IMO isn't noticeable.

I hear you though:

I agree my 20x10.5s with 275 35 20 come in just under 50lbs. My stock 20s with stock Pirellis were 66lbs each :headbonk:

I wish you had weights of the wheel with no tire before and after. :(
