NBP on 20" Volk GT30s
So I bought the wheels and suspension off of another member here (CS-SuperchargedTL) who is the proud new owner of an RS4 (lucky bastard!) and I thought I'd post a few pics. Big thanks to CS-SuperchargedTL for the hook-up, CJitty, phee, and trojanman10984 for pitching in. We raped his car of it's sound system, wheels, suspension, exhaust and tails and sidemarkers...ATL doesn't play when it's time to do work!
Wheels are 20" Volk Racing GT30s and suspension is Tien SS w/EDFC, Progress rear sway bar and soon to come RV6 strut tower brace.
Hope you enjoy:
Next up: Type-S tails, A-Spec kit, then back to the interior...

all of the 19" volk gt series weigh about 25-26 pounds but these are 20's. if you want light wheels you have to go with the monoblocks like the re-30's that jd used to have and posted a pic of. all are very nice wheels but i'd take the re-30's which probably weigh about 20 pounds.

pretty sure from talking to vendors a while back about the gt series. ask kennedy again and if he actually weighed them. the only wheels that are really as light as you would think they are, are monoblocks.
my best guess is that 19's in 8.5" width weigh probably weigh 25 pounds which is pretty light for a multi-piece 19. it's possible that they would be as light as 24 pounds considering they're not that wide. a 24 pound rim will feel pretty light when u pick it up with both hands.

I didn't weigh them, but they are heavier than stock, I would guess by no more than about 5 lbs...just a guess... 
And I'm with you all on the A-Spec body kit and TL-S tails...that's next
Thanks for all the feedback!

I'm slammed on Tien SS coilovers...I might raise her up about a half inch at some point...
She only rubs a bit during aggressive cornering or if I have my kids in the back seat (still takes sizable dips and such)
