it's a shame i think they're good looking wheels but they're a little too big for an NB and way too big an NA, if they came in 15's or 16's....

I know a guy in Tulsa who has them. They're boat anchors. My sister sold hers the first week she had the car and bought light 15's.

Ummm i'm sorry but 12.5 its like impossible.... Just to show you : Some OZ Ultrleggera 17" weight 17.5 and SSR Type C RS weight 14.5 ... but they're 400$ and I doubt you have those

the original SSR Comps in15x7 weigh 9.5 so I think 12.5 for a 17 is feasible. FTR, they were like $350 each


and **** that type c rs. ugly finishes. didn't SSR go bankrupt so the rims are made by a different company under the same name brand though?

May be . I just took the weight info on the tirerack site, I haven't checked further. It's sad that the wheels fabricant doesn't always keep that info on their website....

Yeah I think that if we search on many website we could ends up with 3 or 4 diffenrent numbers..... Only a scale could tell the truth

The Mazda Speed Racing harts are around 17 pounds each. They are heavy. regardless, i think they are beautiful rims.

For some reason these two cars look strikingly similar...
