weight of turini's over standard 172 wheels?

[Jamesstone]

When i bought my clio 172ff the previous owner had installed a full set of turini's, gotta say i think there the best looking alloys for the clio but unfortunatley my spare wheel is the original 16" 172 one, so lifted it out the boot to inspect & jesus that things gotta bit of weight in it lol.. so was thinking, how much weight would i save removing the stock spare wheel, jack & other bits & bobs & having the filler in a can that the cups use instead?

wheel+ tyre - say 15-20kg
jack and other crap 5-10kg
if it doesnt match then might be idea to dingy it in the shed, however run risk of no tyre if you get flat and generally the foam is pretty pisch

Thats the prob, would not be fun being left on the side of the road if i got a slash in the tyre or summit :dapprove:

Whats the weight diffrence between a cup turini & the 172ff 16"?

Plus if you use the foam it ruins the tyre

Turini is 9kg without tyre
