There are actually the super light weight RI-D.

Front weight 7.4kg (16.3lbs)
Rear weight 8.3kg (18.3lbs)

I am still waiting for my tires.

Excellent!

I had thought that the RI-D had cut-outs through the spokes and I couldn't really see them in the photos, so I assumed they were FI.

Great choice.

They looked like F1 to me as well. But I am 99.9% sure that BBS does not make a F1 wheel that fits the 991.

The new F1-R which is virtually the F1 with cut-outs through the spokes. This is the RI-D from Japan using high-tech strength A 7000 aluminum where the F1 or F1-R uses A 6000.
And the DURA caps are specifically made for the RI-D. And I don't think BBS sell it anywhere beside Japan.

The spokes are actually a little bit thinner than the F1 if you pay close attention to it. And it is unbelievably light weight.

Marc, I am not sure if F1 has 991 application . The F1-R has it for the wide body 991 tho.
