They're not terribly heavy... about 17 lbs for 17"... but not as light as the Advan RG that they copy. I have a couple chops of RGs on my car... lemme dig them up.

I left the red center cap in, it looks real good, well IMO... the honda cap wont fit...

I dont think there a lot of these wheels around, being from Japan and all, lol... they are really nice, i like them a lot.

Hmmm well its pretty much the same, the grip you get with the tires is a lot better than the crappy firestones...

I got pirelli supersport p7000, damn they grip nicely... i love the wheels and tires!!!!!

Everyone seems to get the Kumhos, they have good bang for their buck... I like the red caps actually, they are nice, IMO...
