Mine are also 17" and the 18.4 lbs. figure is approximate based on subtracting the weight of the package (without the wheel) from the total package weight listed on my shipping invoice. I still want to get the weight of the wheel alone if no one else does it first. Mine don't turn out great in most pics I take (black hides the spoke detail) but with the right lighting and a good photographer, they can look better than in person. :p

yes, little HDR to help bring them out in the shadow - good eyes. But they really do look about like that - just not as defined/bright. I think the photo still gives a good idea what they really do look like.
I picked the GM as, yes, silver is common, and b) I think silver draws the eyes a bit too much, I wanted attention firstly on the car, then on the wheels.
I like the black on yours, especially whiting the branding, really looks great. But still prefer the GM :-)
Is yours dropped any? which springs/shocks?
I'm happy for the moment, but would like to drop it a half on some 'girlfriend' class springs/coilovers, and do the exhaust. I'd go JDM STi if I can, but don't know much about the specs on the JDM springs.
