EDIT: A couple of people have quoted the MB weapons (18x9) as being 23.5 pounds per rim. So it appears they are heavier than OEM in that width. Perhaps the 8" wide wheel is less.

damn, that first silver 8 has the perfect stance and wheels IMO. Too bad i have to drive my 8 in the winter here, or i would definitly be doing that to mine. all the other 8s are gorgeous of course. the blue 8 is also really badass. looks like vegas is the place to be.

Man they just dont get it do they Mike. But I dont think it has to be DOT legal. You can have $500.00 rims or $50,000.00 rims its just a number. My director of sales has a BMW 7 Series. He went over a dip in the road and has a dent in his rim. Now when he gos over 55 mph his steering wheel shakes. Its not his tire not the alignment but the rim.
I also have pix of a Lambo that hit a wall and wiped out. The center part of the wheels where the lugs conncets stayed on the car but the rim and tires came off lol I'll dig them out and scan them.
