AMG wheel weight

I've tried to find reliable info on AMG wheel weight but it seems its military secret! I just bought winter wheels and want to compare weight with stock wheels.

I was wondering about weight of non-forged vs forged wheels. Any one have that info?

Thanks in advance!

I'll say this - they're damn heavy! Just installed a set of TSW for winters and found the stockers crazy heavy.

That's what I'm afraid!! I went with a winter Wheel that I did not particularly fell in love with. I chose based on lowest weight from those available (26 lbs) but if the stock wheels are in the low 30s I might change my choice since the ones I chose are backordered...

Thanks for your input... That is for the forged or the cast wheels?

I remember weighing my stock forged 19's on my CLS63TT (2012) the fronts were 27 or 28lbs and the rears were 30-31lbs IIRC.

19x9 and 19x10 oem.... forged is only one part of clearing weight as shown here. Design, back pad, spoke design etc... play huge factors (back pad carries the most).
