Good question. They didn't feel as heavy as the stocks, but I didn't weigh them to get the exact weight. Tire grip is much much better than stock. I don't feel scared at all to use the sway bars to their potential on the clover leafs now.

Actually I think they are the same. They sure look similiar. I've always liked this style because the spokes go to the edge of the rim and make it look even larger. I've seen rims were the spokes only went out to the bolts on the outer rim and it just makes the rim look small to me. That's also why I think the stock 17's look bigger than they actually are.

Looks good man.
Like me, you’re another candidate for the “Time to paint the Calipers” club.

I picked up a can of “Plasti-Kote” BLACK Caliper paint today for mine.

I know! I've been meaning to come up one of these days. You're right about red. Don't seem to see enough red on the forum. Yours, Web Toker's, Soopa's (former) and Shawn S's (former) were the only ones I seem to remember. . .
