Something lighter than stock otherwise keep the stock. The BBS and Champion both look sweet.

The factory Carrera III's in 18 only weigh 22# fr, 25# rr. That is a savings of 3# front and 6# rear per corner or 18# total.

Good wheels, but the 19" Champions weigh even less -- I believe they are 20 and 21 lbs. front and rear, respectively. Almost a 30 pound savings of unsprung weight.

I guess that I like a little bling -- love the Champion wheels in black with their standard machined lip on the RS.
