I know that the real Fuchs are forged and are supposed to be lighter than the knowckoffs that are cast but I wondered by how much. Does anyone know the actual weight of a 15x7 real Fuch vrs. a knockoff?

I think the 15x7" are from 15-17lbs. My 16x6" were listed at 17lbs...but i weighed them myself and they were 15 w/o tires. A typical cast wheel would be about 22-24lbs. You'll notice the difference. My car drives smoother w/ the 16x6" and stiffer front torsion bars than when I had the 15x5.5 fuchs 2.0 wheels.
