i don't remember their weight - someone weighed them and cut one open once.
it wasn't a huge difference.
you need 00 lower arms but the upper arms are the same.
also - you get the added benefit of no seized pinch bolt =)

the upright needs diff lower arms, and diff wheel bearing ... but pinch bolt corrosion is still poss

says the guy who went with 2.8/rs4 intake tract :)
hey man, 6 lbs of unsprung weight savings per corner is important to me.
no not really. im not doing it for weight so much ... more like i have old wheel bearings, and old control arms sitting around. so its either get new arms for iron uprights, or get alum uprights
