Lightest 19" wheel for the E AMGs
E55 and 63ers,
I am wondering what is the lightest 19" wheel that is available on the market right now. So far i know that the BBS RS-GT 19" is the lightest as they weight only around 21lb. Is there any other 19 inchers from other brand that is lighter than the BBSs. Thanks!

Yeah, the carbon fiber would be too expensive...
I just saw online that the HRE competition series C21 is as light as 19lb.
Also, found this wheel by RAYS called the progressive ME with 112x5
19x8.5 - 21.37 lb
19x9.5 - 22.27 lb
I think they're about $780 a piece, a bit cheaper than the BBSs
Dunno whether they will work for our E55 and 63s though...

correction, the progressive ME 19" doesn't come in 112x5
only the progressive spoke, however i heard that they are discontinued by rays
19x8.5 ET35
19x9.5 ET38
Anyone knows if these wheels would fit in the E?

You will probably find a lighter one piece wheel but the HRE Comps are one of the lightest 3 piecers out there.
I have the C21's and the fronts are a little over 19 lbs and the rears are 20lbs.

As dissapointed as I am in HRE, they are a very nice rim. Light and strong, no question. as VIC55 said, you will likely need to go to a one piece for less weight than their Competition series. I am looking at CCWs now, you may wanna give them a shout.

Can anyone verify if these come for the E? I would be interested. Does anyone have contacts, etc?
