[QUOTE="AC525, post: 356818, member: 2374"] changing tyres now to ps2(BRAZIL YEAR08) 245/40/18 rm980/pc(how's the price?),they weigh 10.8kgs only vs RFTs 13.5kgs, a saving of 2.7kgs per tyre and total savings of 10.8kgs off total unsprung weight!!! the m-sport style is actually 12.8kgs per pc.. taiwan rims are only slightly lighter at 12.5kgs for 18inch(M5) and 19inch(breyton replica latest design) cos they dont sell ori rims. Weighed nankang tyres 245/35 19 at 12.5kgs/pc... hence 19inch rims and normal tyres should be same weight as bmw 18s with RFTs.. but dunno bout the comfort though... handling should be better due to the lower profile tyres without sacrificing fuel economy and acceleration... RFTs lasted me 44000kms [/QUOTE]
