RE: Anyone running 215/40/16 tires on their Scirocco?

<x-charset iso-8859-1>The 16" Hock R weighs 21 pounds.  It's not the lightest wheel out there,
that's for sure.  (That would be something like the SSR Integral at 14
pounds in 16 inch format.)  But I believe it is within a pound of the 16
inch Borbet Type C (if I were to simply upgrade the 15 inch Type Cs I'm
running now).
