Although these are heavy rims, I believe they are lighter than the HAmann 17" because it is a 2 piece rim. Also they are definately lighter than the original 17"s.
Remember, if I want light wheels its just a matter of swapping back to my good ol' BBS RGR's

Thanks Joker!
Once I get the tires I might put them on to shoot a couple nice pictures.
Like I said. No worries, got the BBS RGR's to swap just in case it calls for a lighter driving performance and feel.

Pyugala,
Thats a freakin SWEET setup!
Here's my track setup:
Not extremely different from my street setup but these are ROTA Slipstreams instead of Grids. 16x7 40mm offset.

THANX! Glad to finally find someone that likes them, everybody usually says they don't understand the color combo.
