Man I love the RUF wheels. They're supposed to be pretty heavy. Let us know what you find out!

Thanks! I think they look at bit outlawish on the silver car. Definitely not your "doctor's boxster".

Will update with weights after I call RUF.

Mine are about 10% heavier than stock ones. They are 18 x 10 and 18 x 8.
I weight them with the tires on though (Michelin ps2).
After I put them on the stock box basically did not have the power to break them loose!

Do you have any photos?
Sounds like you need more power. ;-)
