I see why some folks might not like them but to me they look fine. 19" is not practical imho..

I am really liking the 19's i am thinking getting those for DD and then lightweight 16-17's with race rubber for autox.

They're actually pretty lightweight.

I thought I'd cross over from NASIOC just to post this.

I messaged a vendor for these wheels a couple of weeks ago. I asked them how much the 19x8 5x100 +45 Formula-colored Volk Rays G25 wheels weighed and was told: 17.9lbs.

There's a reason these wheels cost around $950 each. Even if they're not your favorite design, I don't think you can hate on 19" wheels that weigh almost 3lbs less each than the stock 17x7 +48 wheels.

Just wanted to throw some perspective up in here. Thanks.
