Lol, The rotiforms for 18x8.5 come in around ~24lbs (forged ones drop about ~5/6 pounds per corner).

If you car about performance, those wheels are a no go, but in terms of presence BLQ's stop fucking traffic.... I can't emphasis how stunning they are in person (with a good color)

Okay, since I believe the 18x8.75 are 24-25 lbs according to their website

Sure. Two things though:

Not sure when they will actually be released (preordered)

I won't be putting them on (if I have them) until April (when snow is gone)

But after that, gladly!!
