What is the weight on Nexo wheels??

I saw some wheels that I like but I can't find the weight. Can somebody help me with this? They are [font=Arial]Nex-O wheels - TS-8, GS-5, NX-7.[/font]
[font=Arial]Thanks.[/font]

It looks like they are exclusive to Wheelmax.com. I tried contacting wheelmax (they claim they are opened until midnight...but when I called they said they were closed )

Anyway, I went to nexowheels.com and requested the weights. We'll see how fast they respond.

DONT HOLD YOUR BREATH-ts8 weight

TOOK em 2 weeks to respond to me-and then the email said "we cant release that information"!! completely annoyed, i promptly called thier 800 number (in the middle of the day) and was told shipping weight was 28 lbs per wheel, that all they knew. i assume that makes em as heavy as factory s lites. i went with konig heliums at 15 lbs each, wish my car was here to put em on.

Got the same reply from Wheelmax about Drag

I asked Wheelmax Customer service about the weight of the Drag wheels they sell earlier this week because the Drag Website "contact us" portion didn't work. Wheelmax said

"Hi,

Unfortunately we cannot give you the weight information on the wheels.If you have any questions please do not hasitet to contact us.

Thank you." Do you think Wheelmax is the same company as Nexo and Drag?

Those are nice looking wheels though... if you're going for dress-up I think they're worth it.

but I hope the offset and center bore diameters are correct. wheelmax
never posts the vital info on their site (unless I don't know where to look).


Here's what should work:
offset +42 to +50mm
center bore: 56.1mm diameter
pcd: 100mm x 4 lugs
