The previous 19" set I had was 13kg (26lbs?) on the rear. That didn't work at all.... cast alloy wheels in the 10.5 config. NO GO

The one that I have now a little better, 9.6kg and considered ultralight by our industry professional standard, but still... feeling sluggish dunno. Definitely not the same as those SUPER light and cheap 17" cast wheels that came original with the car.

Mind you mine is a the fastest Boxster of all, the mighty TWO point FIVE liters! Might be less noticeable with the 3.2L engine
