OEM wheel studs:
ARP 100-7017 extended studs:
What ARE superheavy are wheel spacers/adapter with any significant thickness to them, say 15 mm or more.
These are 20mm thick, 5 x 114.3, 67.1mm center bore wheel spacers with built-in studs, with the five extra 17mm hex-drive, generic steel lugnuts necessary to bolt them on (the lugnuts are barely over a quarter pound):
And these are 30mm thick, 5 x 114.3, 67.1mm centerbore wheel spacers made of 6061 aluminum... who knew alumimum could be so heavy.
Of course, I could have paid the machine shop more money to machine out the areas between the studs to save some weight, and maybe I still will, down the road, but at the time I was being cheap:

I've got a spreadsheet with MOST (if not all) of the weights posted in this thread. I've just updated it as the thread has progressed.
I don't really feel like going through it and verifying again though.

do not verify anything. just make a new thread and keep it up to date. everyone scale is different. so if its a little off from each person thats ok. if we come up with something greater then what it looks to be then we can discus.

Ha, looking through what I have, I've got multiple entries all over (different sources), lots of custom parts that wouldn't apply to anybody else and its spread across 5-6 different spreadsheets. It will take a while to go through.

Yeah, I'm not going to update a thread for those that can't search. It would be nice, but I don't care that much. 
Just one more weight...
EVO IX turbo
No wastegate actuator and all studs removed - 19.2 pounds
