Default Opinions on this wheel

What do you guys think? Look good/bad?

The 16 x 6.5 weighs 14.5 LBS and there is a GroupBuy going on. $860 for a set of four rims, Ecsta tires, mounted, balanced, and Gorilla wheel locks.



Does the fact that they are 6.5" wide make a big differance in handing over a 7" wide rim?

Yea those are the RPO1s.

Im trying to decide on those or the Rota Subzeros in 16".
I think the Rotas weigh 16 LBS per wheel though..which is 1.5 LBS more then the Enkeis...which is 6 more LBS for all 4 wheels...quite a bit.

Does anyone know for sure what the 16" Subzeros weigh? Is it 15 LBS or 16 LBS?

if i were you i would go down to discount tires and see if they can match that price.....when i was looking at enkies at Discount, it was gonna be about 400 for wheels, 400 for tires, and about another hundred for mount, balance, and the lifetime warranty......the warranty is very important if you got low pros.......plus, if they match it, you might be able to get 7 in wide rims
