I am sure if you list them they will sell real quick. Lots of people with OCD here, few are admitting it!
Well put it this way I have enough to support several years of new tires.

Yes agreed and I had it done it properly and took off about 70 grams of weight. One thing to note is the weight of the tire patch although small does through off the balance.

Yes they will and you can purchase them individually as needed. Downside to Porsche oem weights is they like many off the shelf weights they do not increase in thickness with weight so you still can potentially end up with a long strip of weights on your wheel. Pm for specifics as since I started this thread I completed my PhD on wheel weights
