The GT7's are SICK wheels, I saw a pic of the chrome shadow finish with brushed lip, I love those wheels.
Can you possibly post this pic? I wanna see as many color variations as posssible of this wheel while I pick the bank I'm gonna knock over to buy them!

RGR's are Great Wheels! BBS makes top notch quality wheels. Too bad they don't have huge lips and really high polished rims. Definitely a good, strong and light weight wheel! If I owned an E46 M3 I'd have a set of BBS RGR's for sure! They just look different on a LR coupe.

Also, if you're ever going to go FI you'll want heavier wheels to help you hook up.

If I am not mistaken..... some Works wheels are also pretty darn heavy in the 24+lbs range.

Aren't the OEM 18" rims around 24 lbs and the OEM 19" rims around 20 lbs?

18" OEM rims appx 24.5lbs each, 19" OEM rims appx 19.5-20.5lbs each. Calculating into rotational mass the 19" comes out ahead slightly...... until you slap on those 30lbs Potenza tires

Sometimes I wonder where that online website got their weight measurements from. It says my Work Meister S2-R weigh up to 24 pounds. When I bought my wheels, the store said they only weighed like 19-20 pounds, depending if I was talking about the 8.5" wide wheel or 9.5" wide wheel. My wheels came with tires, so I didn't bother weighing them when I got them, so I couldn't verify...

That being said, the stock 18x8" wheel is 25 pounds. And I think someone said the 19x8" are like 19 pounds, but that is also a once piece wheel, so that could explain why its light. That, and the fact that it's only 8" wide.

Someone else asked about how much I got my rims for. I paid $3500 for all 4, which includes air-frieght from Japan, and a set of 4 Michelin Pilot Sport All/Season tires.

There was a local store here that sells the rims too. But they wanted 3500 for just the rims with no tires

The tires are what made it over 3 grand from the place where I bought it, as they were close to 300 each for the back tires. I wanted the Pirelli P-Zero Nero M+S, but they couldn't get any, casue of some massive backorder or something. If I could've, the tire costs would've been half or something like that.
