Wheel weight list

I've created a Wheel Weight page over on the carbuilder wiki, partly as I think it will be useful, partly to generate a bit more interest in it as a resource - it's only useful if people actually contribute information.

http://www.carbuilders.info/pages/Wheel_Weights

Currently only has the wheels I've got for my buggy - Weller Steels. Edit: re-measured following hobbsy's u2u, beware bathroom scales - even digital ones - they don't do well at low weights. Updated the wiki - looking at 5.45kg (using the me+wheel - me method).

Wouldn't suit every 7, but anyone going for a retro style should give them a look.

So If you've measured the weight of your wheels or have a good link either get a username for the wiki and add them (link below), or post here / u2u me and I'll put them up.

Updated post and wiki due to hopelessly over optimistic scales

Thanks, I've put the link up. Am I right in thinking it's mostly American manufacturers? I've not heard of half the brands mentioned.
