I vaguely remember weighing my old BBS rims when i sold them and they were around the 10-11kg mark. People under estimate the BBS rims but they are far superior
to most other suby rims out there. They weighed in around 3-4 kg less (each rim) than my 06 wrx rims i have on the car now.
they are just a pain to keep cleen and don't allow for brake caliper up grade.
A decent set of pads, braided lines and a Master cylinder brake stopper will give you all you'll need to stop.

BBS come in at 7.10kg boys and girls. Without tyre of course.
That is pretty light for an OEM rim.
My Rays however, are only 5.3kg each and they come OEM on the S202. MEGA WIN.

Sh1t they're grubby. I must give them a clean when I get a chance.

Your brembo's look faulty there mate- they have a bit of dust on them. I would be more than willing to take them off your hands and swap them for some almighty 2 pot OEM calipers. Will provide them dust free so you know they are guaranteed to work. :sarcastic:

However great that deal sounds I'm going tohave to pass.

On topic (sort of), does anyone know if Gen4 GT 2 pot callipers and 315mm rotors fit under BBS rims.

Hi lads... Just adding my 2 cents here with this one. Keep the B4 2 pots on there. They provide no more stopping power that the WRX 4 pots. The only real advantage of the 4 pots is that you'll see less brake fade if you're trashing the guts out of the brakes. Upgrade to some nice new slotted rotors, some commercial pads and braided lines. That will make a difference. End.
