I did a fair amount of poking around and didn't see actual weights on the .03 flavor of the BBS Carrera 5 spoke rims here on rennlist. Rather than necro an old thread I chose to put the information here in case others are looking for the information. I just picked a set of these up from Oleg - they've been professionally painted (not powdercoated) per Oleg which I'd assume would impact the final weight to some degree. They're OEM Porsche wheels made by BBS for the 996 series narrow body cars. Center caps were not included in the weight. I used a digital luggage scale and suspended each rim by a ribbon of insignificant weight. And for those who really have to know, the ribbon was blue. MY02 Carrera Classic 5 spoke 996.362.136.03 8Jx18 ET50 Rim 1: 21.37lbs Rim 2: 21.21lbs 996.362.140.03 10Jx18 ET65 Rim 1: 23.89lbs Rim 2: 24.09lbs

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.

Fixed it for ya Did you find weights for the other versions (.01, .02, ..) of this wheel and were they any different?
I thought at least one picture was a good idea so the visual folks would know what I was talking about and threw the rest in since they were there. Apologies for the required scrolling. To answer your question, all I found was vague poundages and repeated references to the same chart that lists: 996.362.134 and 996.362.136.07 fronts at 9.3kg/20lbs 8oz 996.362.138 and 996.362.140.07 rears at 10.3kg/22lbs 11oz I couldn't find actual weights of the .03s anywhere which is why I created the thread - figured the information might help someone, somewhere, someday.
Pictures are always nice. My 'fix' was for, what appeared on my screen, a very light grey font that was almost invisible. Thanks for the other weights you've found.
