I know you guys have a thread here for the original wheel weights website, but I'd like to post a link to a new format of it that I just spent the past 10+ hours editing:

I didn't like how much work you had to do and going through pdf files so I organized them in a more presentable format on my wiki based site. Plus if enough people contribute then this is a much better way to have a more up to date and accurate database about wheels. Feel free to submit anything you'd like there, I made the website because I'd like to a see a solution to the amount of time everyone has to waste to go scouring for information all over the web. Eventually I might even start adding pictures of all the wheels on there as well. The lists are split up into rim size, and then each list is organized by the rim width. Hope it comes in handy, it's what I used to pick out my SSR Type-C 16x7" rims.

Also, I just finished adding the bolt pattern list as well (though it could use some more work):

Nice. Much more user friendly than the other site! This should be a sticky!!!

Thanks, I'm glad you like it . As I've went over with others, the major downside is that it's organized in only one way, where as the original website has it in a few different ways. However, I think when one is trying to shop for wheels they already have the size determined, so they want to pick the lightest wheel in that class (if that's what they're going for). But one thing I noticed when i was doing all that editing was the original author didn't really format the whole thing properly because whatever produced the table for him didn't calculate things correctly and put wheels that are 10" wide or over before the thinnest wheels which were usually 7" wide. I'm guessing it thought since there's a 1 at the front it's smaller. So I fixed that and made sure they're all in proper order now. That and a lot of his Konig names were missing lol, not sure why? Almost all the Konigs are labeled as "Konig Unknown". When I get more time I'm going to go through other wheel weight lists and sites and see what's missing.

Konig actually has a wheel called "unknown", that is probably what he was referring to. Not that the wheel was unknown.

Hah! Who would have ever thought.
