Bleh...I've contacted everyone I know to contact. I want to buy 2 17x9.5 +38's for my rears, and I either can't seem to make contact with someone (sat on hold with wheels next for like 20 mins, then sent email, no response) or everywhere else has them on backorder till June.

Anyone selling 2 9.5 +38's in silver??

Hey guys, sorry if it has been covered before, but how much lighter are these wheels 17X8 and 17x9 than the AP2 OEM wheels?
I really like this wheels but I'm not crazy how they look silver on suzukas... i don't know...
Im thinking of selling my 18' Volks to get something like this

For the oem AP2 wheels the fronts are 17.6lbs and the rears are 20.5lbs. The RPF1 17x8 is 15.6lbs and the 17x9 is 16lbs even. So overall it's about 13lbs of unsprung weight.

Of course technically you have to take into account the weight of the tires you want to run as well.

right how bout if you run 225 45 17 front and 255 40 17 in the back? would those be much heavier than OEM?
thanks

^It would be a negligible difference. I like the up-sized tires anyway, and how they ever so slightly change the way the car feels @ speed.

*edit* for the record, that's the same exact setup I'm currently running:

You would say by up sizing to 225/255 makes the car more stable at speeds?
