$699 for a set of 4.

I've seen these on a local M3 - impressive looking.

According to the sonictuning website: 27lbs for the 18x8.5, plus they have a number of posts on Craigslist (Washington DC covers DC-VA-MD) whereby the price is reduces to $499 per set.

I cannot find the for sale post herein or on Craigslist to which Biggi_e refers. I'd like to hear the seller's experience with these wheels. I'd appreciate a link from anyone who's seen these posts.

Cheers.

zain22150 - many thanks, I've PM'd the seller.

He's running 23mm spacers and 215 tires!? Really?

On an 18x8.5" wide wheel, 48mm-23mm = 25mm offset.

J-
Thanks for the info via PM. Good stuff. I'm glad the lowered, wide spacer stance works for your ride. Nice pics and congrats on being featured in the blog.

This should end this thread. Jump to jsheth's photogallery for good pics: https://acurazine.com/forums/showthread.php?t=795347, or to the ever present will this fit my car thread for info regarding fitment of the ST100 wheels.

Cheers
