Mike asked a few pages back how much these wheels weigh and the answer is 10.5kg without tyres. Not light, but bloody strong. I had a meeting with a kerb at around 60mph a little while back and still drove over 20 miles home without so much as a wobbly steering wheel. It was totally my fault. Combination of unfamiliar, unlit NSL road, another car tailgating and then an oncoming van not turning off his main beam and dazzling me. The result was a new wheel and tyre, but no other damage that I've noticed...
When I turned off later I saw the car behind was a Lotus Evora, so I was never gonna drop him! :laugh:

Awesome :smiley: Didn't realise that.
I always remember the cliosport.net lads adamant that 17" or bigger ruined the handling on 172's and 182's :rolleye:

Please note the Turini wheels are long ago sold to another forum member :happy2:
