Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have an '02 C4S. I'm considering upgrading my turbo look wheels to the hollow spoke turbo wheels to reduce wheel weight by 20-25%. Previously, I had surprisingly noticable benefits when I upgraded my stock BMW M5 wheels for lightweight BBS RGR wheels, so I am a believer in the benefits of reducing unsprung weight and rotational mass. Does anyone on the board know if there might be negative consequences if I upgrade to the lighter hollow spoke turbo wheels?

POST 3Original post

Well, some of the lighter wheels are not made to withstand the abuse of daily road abuse.

POST 4Original post

Agreed. And if you plan on tracking the car I would advise against it.

POST 5Original post

Plenty of TT owners drive daily and go to the track on the stock wheels.

POST 6Original post

I would not have any worries about the factory hollow spokes you mention in your original question. Aftermarket, possibly. Cheap aftermarket, yes.

Thanks guys. I'm new here and it amazes me how quickly I can get helpful answers to my questions.
