I am trying to find the weight for them at 15 x 6.5

The guy reckons they were 9kg but that sounds too heavy?

I cant find the name, but they are quite popular. I have them in 16"s and Cliff has them in 17"s. Havent lifted one without a tyre, but id estimate one of mine to weigh about 15kg-18kg with a tyre on (205/50/16 Eagle F1).

Think I found the name, Crono Evolution.

Hmm now not too sure, some look more rounded on the spokes than others.

Ok so theyre not as light as say CP036s then (obviously thicker spokes etc)

Reckon theyd look alright on an AE82 liftback?

300 is quite reasonable I reckon

I saw the Chrono, the centres are slightly different to these ones.

I say go for it! Definately a nice wheel, strong as well (they are made for rallying!)

Funny enough, i just found that wheel comes standard on a Lotus Esprit 350 Sport, and they call it the OZ racing Chrono Magnesio, its made out of magnesium. Not sure if the standard OZ one is, but looks IDENTICAL.

I reckon its different though, spokes in the white ones look wider? Could be a wheel size thing though
