Has anyone measured the front-rear weight distribution on a 3B coupe? I have heard the number 65%-35%. Does anyone have real measurements?

I have an ABY, At my dads garage on the suspension tester it measures the corner weights when you pull onto it so the next time im up there I will weigh mine and let you know

Cheers Greg,
An ABY should be close enough. Just 100 kg heavier.
Your dad's garage sounds like a great place. Have you corner balanced you car?
I wish I have some equipment like that.

That's an easy win - just play "pull a pig" for the day then kick her out after the weigh inOriginally posted by S2central.netOh nice - let's all do a weigh in at the next meeting there then, then have a competition for who can lighten their car the most in one day

Does anyone know the answer to this original question?
i.e. what's the unladen weight distribution for a coupe?
I'm just about to order some wheel dollies that will enable me to move the S2 round my garage like she's a shopping trolley. Just wanna make sure that it's not going to destroy them.
They should be plenty strong enough, just wanted to make sure.Comment
