price is good... I dont know how much the F14s weigh, do you?...

I've been targeting Advan RS, RSD, RZ or RZDF - but they are all expensive - and I like the idea of custom offset (which Forgestar offers)... need to know weight though - I have a hard time going much heavier than 20lbs... I'm sure these are more than 20, but how much more?...

Thanks for the info Mark... and fwiw, I think they would look good on your car.

Mike,

19x8.5 = 23lbs
19x10 = 25lbs

their 18's are a lot lighter 18x8.5 = 17.7lbs & 18x12 = 20lbs

so 9-9.5 is about 24... pretty much what I figured... man that's a toughie - I'm looking into two piece rotors and would hate to negate the weight savings with heavier wheels...

but then again, that price... hmmm... itza toughie...

Hardest part of modding the car is the decisions
