Wheel weight
Here are some wheel/tire weights I did while changing to winter set up!!
Wheels: Millie Miglia Action on 17" = 29# each
Dunlop Winter Sport M2 = 21# each (ie 50#/each when mounted)!
The Michelin Pilot Sport Cup = 19#/each (225/45/17) (ie 47-48#)
The OEM Wheels with tires mounted are 44.5# each! (surprisingly both front and back!) I have to say that the rear ones already got to their "warning" mark! The fronts are gone on the sides!
Here is a pic of Millie Miglia and winter setup!

By the way do you guys think that that little "hole" (a small rock use to be there) on the midlle of the picture (on the horizontal plane) but to the left; does it need repaired before the next event? (next year!!
)

That's he inside of the tire soooooo as you know our car "consume" the outside very well. Note how there are no sticky things on the other side!
Ahhh and this tires have only been used for to events and they are probably good for two more I think....really they are not that bad!!
