Which is laughable since stock non M BMW wheels are ridiculously heavy.
I measured my new setup and I drop 12 lbs a corner with non runflats and M wheels this spring.
I was surprised that runflats were not that much heavier than non runflat tires. (about 2-3 lbs) But I was comparing different brands as well so maybe they aren't much of a difference at all.

It was easier than most brakes I've done. I like the rattle clips on the BMW; sooo much easier to work with than VW. I scrapped my R brakes to hell replacing pads with the stupid rattle clips. Looked terrible.
