Ive seen two numbers 55 and 65lbs. Not sure which one is true.
Compared to my friend's base GT seats, premium seats have all that extra stuff in the rear and also have two harnesses instead of one. This thread shows the base seat as 50 lbs, so I'm thinking all that extra stuff's gotta be more than 5 lbs. Good news is that removing 4 bolts and disconnecting two harnesses is all it takes to take these seats out, so perhaps you can remove the passenger seat (or even swap driver's side with a race seat) before your next race. Just don't throw your back out while lifting these seats out of the car.

I attempted to weigh mine on a bathroom scale. Best I got was 56 lbs but that was with me and a friend lightly touching the seat to keep it balanced on the scale. I saw in another thread that premium seats weigh 58 lbs.
Couldn't you weigh yourself first and then yourself holding the seat to get a more precise weight?

Or are the seats too big and bulky to make that easy?

I tried that but the crappy scale won't give me a reading with me holding the seat. But yeah, it's hard to hold that seat for long due to the weight and bulkiness.

Not the best scale, but here's the weight difference between the PP strut assembly and koni with steeda dual rate springs. Jumping between 3 to 5 lbs.

SVE GT7 wheels in 19x10 weigh between 23.5 and 24.0 pounds each, no center cap or TPMS sensor. The scale I used read in increments of 0.5 pound, so... LMR advertises these wheels at 25# in this size, so an extra 1.0-1.5# bonus is nice.

Tomorrow, I'll weight the stock 2018 EBPP wheel/tire combo to see how much it weighs. I think that combo is still missing form the list. Tire Rack claims the Pirelli P Zero in 255/40-19 weighs 28#.

Update -

On the same scale, the complete 2018 OEM EBPP wheel/tire combo weighs 57.5#. Assuming the Pirelli/Tire Rack folks know how much the tire weighs, the wheel & TPMS sensor weighs 29.5#.


For my own purposes, if the Cooper Zeon RS3-G1's in 285/35-19 weigh 31# as advertised, I just added 30mm to my contact patch and saved at least 2.5# per corner doing it.

Looks like the CD player can be removed on the base car without taking anything else out?
