get better info rather than making assumptions .....i got em in 16" and i chirped 3rd with my d16z6 . they are the same wieght as a GSR rims.. ( i compared with my own to hands)

if ya so concerned about a couple lbs, your car is too slow.

Those look anything BUT MF8's. You're thinking rota. They look more like VOLK CE28Ns.

I have spoon style civic (kinda). But I'm getting tired of the same old look. Anyway the deal didnt push thru. The guy flaked out after I drove 40 miles going to his place to do the trade. What a bitch. I hope is ******* car gets stolen.
