SIMPLE WEIGHT SAVINGS

[Sasuketr]

Hi Guys,

I found some 19" Advanti Wheels for my PP GT and they only weigh 20 lbs each. My car is fully loaded except the ACC. The car weights 3815 lbs. The OEM PP Wheels are 33lbs each. The weight savings just from the wheels would be around 50 lbs. Loosing the suitcase would be a min of 20lbs weight saving. Ligtweight battery would be a 10 lbs weight saving. Junk in the trunk out would be 10 lbs. With half a tank of gas in the car the car would weight 3675 lbs. The race weight with me in it would be 3835 lbs. I think thats a really good number that i would like to reach before hitting the streets of willow this upcoming summer. Have any of you guys used Advanti Wheels before? Are they reliable? Thanks.

It sounds like you've got a good plan on some savings! Which wheels were you looking at and where did you find the weights to them?

I know a couple of Lexus Guys that have used these wheels and have nothing but good to say about them. Granted, they don't drive their cars on a track, but they have driven them on streets that aren't so great and haven't had any rim problems. They're using 20's too, so there is less tire to protect the shock.

I believe that they're flow formed too.

Good Luck and Sorry to not be a lot of help to you. :cheers:

They are. He's shaving a .5" off the front width, which makes a difference in weight savings. Not a fan of those wheels, OP. To each their own tho!

Here you go. Thanks.

Why are you going with 19x8.5 fronts? They'll still take the 255s... but even for the weight I wouldn't lose the width, just my preference...
