      Hey RickSloan, i think i have a late 318i flywheel coz when i went to fit up a 535i e28/e34 clutch the diameter was to big iirc 535i is 245mm and mine is about 215mm in diameter?? which is the same diameter as the 318i flywheel. I never knew what the flywheel was off coz it wasnt labelled at the wreckers it was just in a big pile of flywheels.

      But the main question is how well do they perform lightend vs stock? do u lose any powerband in certain areas? etc etc.

        I am using a 533 single mass flywheel, and it revs up quickly and isn't a hassle to rev match on downshifts. It's still heavy enough for you to let the clutch out and get the car rolling from a dead stop in 1st or 2nd gears. I am with b35/g260/6 and s3.46.

          if you go too light they don't want to idle smoothly...

          12-15lbs is about right,
          I know someone who put in an 8Lb'er and hated it....

          stock is 20 something I believe
