Finally got around to weighing the new BBS wheels while I was cleaning and ceramic coating them before mounting the tires. FYI, when ceramic coating new wheels make sure to tape off about 1" on the barrel right behind the spokes and 1" on the outer part of the barrel. This is so the wheel weights have a chance of adhering to the barrel as the ceramic coating can prevent the weights from sticking properly and then they'll come off.
