From what i've seen in the FS threads, it isn't too high of a price, but not a great deal either.
Unsprung weight has a correlated ratio of 8:1 to curb weight.
32lb increase in unsprung weight is a 256lb increase in curb weight.
So running the new Enkeis vs the older Rays is like driving around constantly with your 250lb friend sitting in your passenger seat.
Hence why people go into strict detail of over unsprung weight, its quite critical, 2pieces rotors, forged wheels, light weight lugnuts, etc, the benefits are dramatically amplified.

That's actually really interesting.. never put that much thought into that hmm..
surprised how nice older gen wheels can be pulled off on newer Gs
