eclipse, very nice wheels! How heavy are they? any idea?

 

heh thanks. they're around est. 19~20 lbs. went from 3 sets of rims in the past 7 months,buying and re-selling(it's good to have sponsored friends )hyper silver mesh w/ pol lip. ~> black meshw/ pol. lip ~> now gold meshw/ pol. lip. someone take these so i can move on from damned mesh rims!

 

18lbs is light to me, but that is for 17's the only 18's that you will find in that weight range are the OZ Ultralegga or whatever they are called lol. I am sure there are others but those are the only ones that come to my mind right now at 5am.

 

You got some high-res pics of those? i wanna chop them onto my car to see how they look.

 

Nah dude, it's just my preference; if I were to get wheels, I'd get some 19's cuz that's the look I like. Sticking with 17's would most likely give you a weight drop over the stock rims which would squeeze a little performance out too.

 

Thats what im going for, lighter and fatter at the same time.

 

With FWD you will need fatter... should look for some 15x8 and put them some drag radials on the front that would be a sight to see!

 

i would have to loose the wilwoods for some stock gti/jetta brakes. in that case ill pass. i dont think i can get 16's to fit over the calipers. So 17x9 at 18lbs works form me

There was some old school wheels i liked and they only went to 16x7, i need 8" min

 

i want 19' wheels... anybody wanna just ship them to me, I'm not too picky about weight and all that stuff... thanks in advance guys.

 

what are everyones thoughts on 5zigen wheels, specifically these:

18x7.5
22lbs
