Vic, all things being equal, which would you take:

HRE P101s or Klassens?

Good question I would love the answer to.
How do they compare weight wise to the OEM wheel. Last thing I want is more weight.

I responded to Pert via PM--- this is a sponsor thread so I cant put down my full write up but just trust me:

The Klassens are a great wheel. The HRE's are a great wheel.

As for wheel weight since its not a comparo, My Audi R8 in 19x8.5 and 19x11 weighed 20lbs front and 21lbs rear... 20's wont be too much more at all. You will clearly drop weight over your stock 18's or 19's depending on what you have. (forged or cast).

Your ever growing stable looks stunning as usual! The 20-21 lbs per wheel is by far & away the LIGHTEST stylish 19" wheel I've ever seen or know of. The CCW 18"s I just bought weigh a tad more but are considerably wider 18x10 18x13

I'm 99% in for a set of the M52R's they just need to check my specific aggressive back spacing & we'll most likely see the 1st set of 19x10 19x13's M52R's
