Anyone know if the 5-spoke marchenisi's are lighter than the standard 3spoke brembos ? If so, by how much and is the rear 5.5 or 6 inch wide?

Cheers, Paul

Yes they are although I can't remember by how much and the rear on the 4S is 5.5" wide.

Thanks Rushjob,
The std 3-spoke weights are as per the Dymag website for a 916 so the front is probably the same, but the rear will be heavier as it has bearings/cush drive etc that the 916 doesn't........

So they still look to be about 4lb heavier than mag wheels......

Damn sight easier to clean the three spokes - I prefer 'em ;)
