Thumbs up What can Brown do for you? (56k be spinnin)

New wheels for the Coupe!

Got my new wheels today. Waiting on the new lug nuts to arrive tomorrow so I can throw these on. Went with the Sevas S-Star 19"x8.5 up front, 19"x9.5 for the rears.

here are the pics:

Just want to thank AutoMotiveMods for the great deal he got me on the wheels. There is a reason they are ranked so high here, awesome seller. Look up their wheels & tire threads in the Marketplace.

looks good. are you sure those cast 1-piece wheels are lighter than our stock forged rims? those sevas are around 24 and 26 lbs for the fr and rr respectively. i don't know the weights of the stock 19's.

I am pretty sure a hooker was killed on that spot in the carpet. It was there when my roommate moved in.

helpful? how so?

sevas s-star
19x8.5 24lb/ea and 19x9.5 27lb/ea

i can assure you, although different sizes, the total weight of the stock 19s is less than your setup now.

Yeah I am pretty sure the 19" OEM's are lighter actually. Dunno what I was thinking when I originally posted.

I am having buyers remorse now
