OK I'm ready to buy ---- need help (wheels!)

OK I've looked long enough. Pretty much decided on Volk LE37T's for my black coupe.
Gonna run the "standard 245/275 tire thingy and I have some specific questions.
1. Will I like these wheels haha (just joking-kinda)
2. I don't want a radical amount of "lip". Just not into the hmongous ones. Want "medium" lip is best way to state it.
Knowing that can you give me good offsets (if you know) to accomplish that?
3. Does anyone know the weight of those wheels?
4. Give me if you can what you think I should pay for wheel/tires/ centers/lugs/ mounted etc. and if ou'd reccommend a good seller.

I know there's lot's of help available and I'm known to F things up occasionally so I hope you'll save me that fate !
And BTW, feel free to throw in a "yay" or "nay' on my choice of wheels. I want the plished" look. Thanks fellas

havent these wheels been discontinued? they were suppose to be a limited edition style...

anyway...

i'd go with a 9.5/10.5 +22 all around setup..

from what ive seen, these wheels dont really offer big lips anyway.

just a guess, but id say youre looking to spend around 3300-3500 for wheels and tires. give status a shout. they will take care of you.

also, check out this thread for some ideas...

Holy Crap ..... I've gone through all this handwringing and the damn wheels are discontinued? #$%^&

Great reply and info. I'll cross my fingers. A guy has a used set for sale but doesn't respond to PM's soooo. They were only 8.5 and 9.5 anyhow.
Thanks Hero.

They don't have big lips, but it's made up by having concaved spokes and they're super light. Also very strong, being monoblock forged. Get 'em!
