Feedback wanted on Aspec replica wheels
I got them mounted yesterday, and threw them on the bathroom scale before bolting them up. With a 205/45/17 Pirelli P-Zero runflat, I'm looking at 42.1 lbs each.
On a good note, that's 1.1 lbs lighter than my stock 16" R119 wheels with the stock Cooper RFs.
On the down side, I now wish I got 215s as I'd like them to look a little wider on the wheel. But, they were a really good deal for RFs, so I can deal with it!
Couple shots from this morning. It rained overnight, so that explains the rust on my rotors.
AND before I get flamed, I really do have a large case of wheel gap!
Lowering it is first on my list when funds become available!

I just picked up a set of these (shipping currently) and a set of Pirelli P Zero Nero's in 205/45/17 from tire rack from on $79 each (on closeout, get them while you still can). I just had a question regarding TPMS. Will the apsec wheels take TPMS or are then not compatible?
I went ahead and purchased the TPMS recommended for the car from tire rack as well hoping they will work. I would just like to know now since I'm not pairing them up until mid spring and will return the new TPMS now while I still can. Thanks

No problems at all!
The car has almost 35,000 miles on it, around half of those are on these wheels.
They are only used it the summer, so no salt contact, and the finish has held up quite well. I just took them off for the winter yesterday, so they're going to be washed, waxed and put away for the winter this weekend. I'll post up a couple pics if you'd like.
I would buy them again.
