thats from a Very poor scale. just a quick test when i was swapping tires.
from what I remeber, both are around 32 lbs.
Rota slips 11.8 lbs, the Falkens Azenis (205/50R15) are around 20lbs.
My Axis se7ens are around 20 lbs (From what I'm told) and I have mo Idea what my 205/40R17 tires weigh. Falken 512's. I was supprised my self. One day Ill weigh it on a much better scale. Like i said that was on a bad scale, so I'd estimate +- 5lbs.

I checked your gallery expecting to see some ugly chrome. But you are lucky, the color of your car just fit that wheels nicely and you are lucky to get on good quality sets of chromes.
you should post your pic and say only some color like your car fits chrome. Those are very nice on your car.
I would think a WHITE coupe with chrome will be nice, but white and chrome looks very close and no one will actaully notice your wheels if you have white coupe.

if you can get chrome, M3 style/civic type R style, it will fit your car nicely...

Rep Power: 0 I like chrome rims just not a vic because IMO they belong on luxury cars and it makes your car more of a target for theft but believe me when I get my G35 Ill get chrome wheels big ones.
