We measured one 19 inch rear for m3 - 10.5kgs. I think for the e92/93 is lighter...

Re: Bbs re-v
I had the Advan RS before on my GTI. They are light because they shave off material where they can. Even the circumference of the wheel is hollowed out. For BBS, they seem to add materials in areas requiring strength. I have not dented a forged rim before but have seen lightweight rims at workshops dented. I think the best is prodrives (made by rays), they seem to have a balance of weight and strength.

Re: Bbs re-v
those rims i got them from studie tokyo in march this year. after a 20% they cost ard $7k, shipping was another $1k as it was supposed to be a domestic model and need export license to ship out. luckily a forummer here helped.
I had them measured when there reached sg, but cant find the piece of paper i scribed it on.
not mayflower estate, it was thomson park where i used to stay with my parents.
couple more photos
One downside is its quite hard to clean though!
