thank for the list, do you think VW jetta mkiv wheels could be there lights ones?

Volkswagen Golf Standard Wheel Sizes: Offset, PCD, Centre Bore for Golf MK1, MK2, MK3, MK4, MK5 and MK6. | Which Wheels stock wheel optional, offset pcd hubs data etc

hub 57.1 mm
16x6.5 in 5x100 ET42 (steel from 00' New Beetle weights 9.0 kgs = 19.8 lbs)
15x6 in 5x100 ET38 (it seems there are some O.E.M. VW 15 in AVUS alloys with 7.5 kg or 16.5 lbs) but what about steel ones and other vag group 15 in alloys?

my 16in alloywheel with dunlop sport 205/55/16 new spare tire weight 18.8 kgs = 41.4 lbs

16x6.5 5x100 ET42 Skoda Alloy wheels weight 9.6 kg = 21.2 lbs
tire Dunlop SP Sport 2000E 205/55/16 9.2 kg = 20.3 lbs

I have michelin energy tires (B rr A wet grp) but i don't know the weight of them yet.

i will soon dissamble the alloy wheel so I can compare in same conditions.

from 13.6 lbs to 24 lbs aftermarket alloy wheels

and if you do same search american michelin energy tire weights 9.5 kgs or 21 lbs


some questions about A3 "steel" rims:

i did some search in vag parts catalog and there are a serieal number with A in audi a3 5x112 steel wheels and in 2004 octavia there are with A and with ending K.
but i think in spain there were no pq35 platform with 15 in steel wheels sol.
i have to buy them from the dealer with correct serial number or do you think with winter tyres there will be cheaps in somewhere?
