Default These wheels are SICK



I'm in love with these wheels. I'm a bit concerned though because they list the shipping weight as 24 pounds... I contacted the manufacturer (MSR, who appears to be a subsidiary of Eagle Alloys) to see what the weight of the wheel is but I haven't gotten a response yet.

If they really are 24 pounds, does anyone know if another manufacturer makes wheels that look exactly like this but lighter?

Nice looking wheels. By the way weren't you selling your civic?

Ok, well I just found out that another wheel they have that lists a shipping weight of 21 is actually 18 pounds, so I bet these wheels are like 21 pounds... which is still a lot lighter than my mr7's.
