You're right about these sale prices though.

The 18x9.5 +35 DPT weighs 20.9, not the +22, sorry for the cofusion.

But, even with the lower offset +22 weighing in at 22.2 lbs, it is STILL the same weight as stock.

why not roll with some enkei rpf1 or rp03's, relatively in your price range maybe a little bit more expensive but very light wheels

Please no rota. Just save up, work extra hours, get the real deal wheels.

JDM (Enkei, Volk, Work, SSR) or BBS.

I have a set of RPF1s sitting in my garage for next season ready to go. That gets my vote.

Volk TE-37's/Rota grids are my second favorite set of aftermarket wheels.

Nothings wrong with Rota ... they may be replica's, but quality is good.

I would prefer he gets the real deal also, but sometimes ur budget doesn't allow.

Also, ARK Design has the R8's which you can buy from ...

http://thmotorsports.com/ark_design/...-1985X-M30-03-

They are $389 per wheel.
