I don't remember. I'm thinking under 29lbs each. By the way, AFAIK Ron Jon Legends in 19x8 are closer to, if not slightly over, 27lbs each.
Let me know what you find out. I'm curious about the number...
TIA,

ok, thanks for sharing. Still deciding. I picked this up from another thread. There was a recent price drop also on the Ace Strada wheels.![Thumbs Up](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)

Here are the wheel weights: Legends
18" x 8" with a 45mm offset- 23.4lbs
19" x 8" with a 45mm offset- 24.6lbs
Even the 19" wheel is lighter than the stock 17" x 8" wheel which weighs in at around 24-25 lbs.

That's good! For some reason the number 27 came to mind...![Why Me](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/whyme.gif)

Now that you have a few miles and things have settled , can you post an updated rear to front angled side shot? Trying to see if the H&R's are too low.
thanks

The gist of the email asking about the Strada, which I think must be wrong because the photos in this string prove otherwise!
"This wheel will not clear the caliper of your car. Neither is the Allure in 19"
The only wheel we have to clear the caliper on that car (06 RL) is the Deluxe in 19" and Executive in 20"
Executive is 31 lbs and Deluxe 19" is 27 lbs

They said the Stradas fit, correct? I only ask because they sent me an email that said the Stradas do not fit.

I believe there are 4 Stradas in 19" - 2 are 9.5" wide which won't fit the RL (wheels stick out too far) because of that and the offset is +38, The 8.5" wide comes in 2 hole patterns - 5x114.3 and 5x120 with the same offset of +38. Of course, we all know that the latter bolt pattern is what our cars call for.
Well, all I can say is that the wheels fit my car the way they were meant to and there was no magic to it. I actually mounted them on my car my self with the hubcentric rings and nothing else to them. It was actually more work trying to find the stupid lug nuts.....

Thanks man! Yeah, the H&Rs are not that low but do make a HELL of a difference in handling, and a bit on ride firmness which I like... a LOT! I thought you said you're going with 20's... Assuming the offset is correct you should not get any rubbing unless you load up the back with people and again the offset is wrong leaving no room for the "tucking in" of the wheels.
Please take pictures once you lower her: I'd love to see how she looks with a lower stance.
Thx,

Oh crap! Too late. Everything is done. I found the shop from the nsxprime forum and the owner owns an NSX. It seems like many local NSX owners bring their cars over for maintenance so I figured they must know what they are doing - with a price!
Maybe I should have spent more time doing research looking for shops, but oh well, you win some and you lose some.
