i actually like em but i think you should upgrade the brakeing system too, the rotors look way too small for those rims lol IMO. but i like the rims looks good. Also how are the general tires any good?

no dice man, theres no way they are that light. BBS RK's around $500/each weight 17/18 lbs. I'll do a lil research and find out and ill post it.

Are ur wheels 45 offset and if ya dont mine what size is ur tire? Sorry for all the quesion but i plan on getting these wheels in the spring. Or these

18X7.5 weigh 20 lbs

thats a little WAAAAY too low for the 18"s. Maybe more like over 25lbs for those 19" I mean unless they costed you about 1k a piece and are of a special material.
