I think they are actually a tad bit over 24lbs, like 24.25 which is a bit heavy, but definitely liveable, cant find a better looking wheel for the money! so is the finish smooth or does it have some texture to it? is the finish really thin and easy to damage? are you using the spacers? is the ride bumpier than the stock setup?
I put them on the scale right before I installed the tires and it tipped it right above 20..so plus or minus 2 lbs....my old 5 zigens (20 lbs) tipped the scale close to it so my scale is pretty calibrated.

The finish is smooth flat black, and if you dont becareful around the lug well and hub you will scrape/scratch the paint easy....my tires are 40 series so the ride is close or better than stock. the spacer I used was provided by wheeldude (2mm).

Jed-- I have the stock air box but Golf is buying it...I'll ask him if he still getting them or else you have first bid.

--thanks to all the kudos guys!

Its not a direct fit and the only reason it looks ok with my bumper is because I have a diffuser IMO, hear are some closer pix...I lifted the rear for a better view...hope it helps, if you are near Bmore I can show you how I did it.....

I also took off the side spats and putting them for sale....next is to blackout the headlights and remove the rear badges!
