The weight in the AWG was based on the following post:

The Superturismo GT's are a 2004 release and are from what I can determine are a 'face lift' model for 2004 ... being a minor update to the original Superturismo.

Weight wise I don't think there is much in it between the Superleggera and Superturismo GT ... I was quoted 7kg for the Superturismo GTs by OZ Australia.

Probably the biggest difference at this point is the number of spokes.

I just did a websearch and found the following weights for OZ Superturismo:

16x7 = 17.6lb
17x8 = 23.3lb

I suspect the 7kg (15.4lb) quoted by OZ Australia is for the Superleggeras, so I've changed the weight for the Superturismos in the AWG to "unknown".

 

Thanks for the info MiniAC,

I'm not sure, but I think those weights might be for the original Superturismos. I've just managed to find this info buried in the vwvortex.com forum:

15X6.5 4-100 ET43 OZ SUPGT 139.00 18.5 Lbs
15X6.5 4-100 ET37 OZ SUPGT 139.00

16X7 4-100 ET37 OZ SUPGT 163.00 21.2 Lbs
16X7 4-100 ET42 OZ SUPGT 163.00

17X7 4-100 ET40 OZ SUPGT 253.00 20.7 Lbs

18X7 4-100 ET42 OZ SUPGT 325.00 21- 23 Lbs

I've actually just ordered some Superturismos, so when they arrive I'll weigh them.

Cheers,

For the record...

My new Superturismo GT 17x7 ET44 wheels where weighed today at 9.4 kgs (20.7 lbs) and the 205/45R17 Bridgestone RE050A tyres were 9.8 kgs (21.6 lbs).

Hope this helps the database.
