i just sold mine. i had them in 18s. they are heavy ill tell you that much. but look sick. heres a pic of tires mounted minus the centercap. and the second pic shows how shiny they really are. i think when i weighed them with tires they weighed like 42lbs. hope this helps.

When you had the Sport Max was it harder for you to accelerate? Those are nice Rims how heavy are those?

without a doubt your car will accelerate slower than with stock wheels, mass being farther away from the hub and added weight will take more effort to spin your wheels, its physics.

had them for 5 min. sat them next to my car didnt like them. so i went back upstairs and ordered the set i have now. when they got here i pull the tires off and the wheels sat for a few weeks. but they were heavier than the ones i have now. and it accelerates slow. so im sure the 18s would have made me slower than i already am. bwahahahaha
