Do any of you very knowledgeable folk know how much the 9 spoke sport alloys weigh? Only I’d like a courier to collect some for me and need to give them the details?
Brilliant, thank you ?About 10.5kg, I weighed one tonight with a tyre and it came in at 20kg

I will not insist ...
Personally, I myself did not weigh ...
Probably the net weight of a new disc is given, without a nipple and weight, without dirt and additional staining ...
As promised, I brought an SE and a Sport back from Rusty Workshops just now and according to my bathroom scales:
Lightweight (non-pepper pots) 15's with tyre: 13.3kgs.
Special Edition five spoke 16's with tyre: 15.6kgs.
SE Six spoke 16's with tyre: 16.6kgs.
Sport 17's with tyre: 19.2kgs.
Note variation from weights given before, which is down to my cheap and nasty scales (unless the Special Editions and Lights have been starving themselves overnight of course). Nevertheless, the relative weights still roughly work as they were all measured at the same time on the same scales using the same method.
That is just ridiculous: the 'sport' wheels with tyres weigh more than one of the complete Austin 7 Trophy bodies I'm building.
OR, they'd add exactly one of these co-pilots over the existing Special Edition 16's. If I fit those, she'll have to walk beside the car.
I'd better break the bad news ...

Brilliant deal from Paisley, almost half the price of anyone else, this is who I will be using shortly ?If you want to ever send wheels I always recommend Paisley Freight. They have a specific service just for wheels.
it only goes on size and not weight and the prices are really good. (£36 for FOUR 17” alloy wheels and tyres !!!) They collect from you and deliver next day!
Check out Paisleyfreight.com and go to the wheel section.
