Figured I would add my own to this. Parking next to the hand prints was accidental, but looked pretty interesting imo.

I got them Jan of this year, I think when we weighed them without tires, they were around 17lb range? Don't quote me on that. I don't have an exact amount. I could be thinking of some other wheels. They're not that heavy, but they do look amazing. Thank you. (Who needs a lip? :D )

Action shot of the 18x9 RP03's. For some reason I really like the angle and lighting on the wheels in this picture.

Any Velocity Red's with PF01's and pics? Also do the PF01's really weigh 17 lbs a pop? If so you're losing around 5 lbs a corner!

Some days the RPF1's look great to me but other days they look 2D and "flat". I haven't seen them in person though. I like the RPF1's, the PF01's, and the RP03's.

Are you sure the RPF1's are lighter? Tire Rack rates them at 17.8 lbs and the PF01's at 17.4 lbs.

Edit: Wow it looks like there are a bunch of different sources for weights. Want something that looks good, will have a noticeable improvement from weight savings, and won't break the bank. Enkei seemed a great place to start now just trying to narrow it down. Trying to spend less than $2K on wheels and tires.

18's and width isn't a huge deal. I know the RPF1's are decently wide.

Well I know the stock rims are between 22-24 lbs (depending on which website you go to lol), so if RPF1's weigh around 17 lbs the difference in driving should be @%#$ing huge right?

TopGear were you asking me what the size of the wheels I saw were? The RPF1's were 18X9.5 I think and I don't remember how wide the PF01's were but they were 18's also. And its been a long day cut me some slack :p

The 18x9.5 +45 Enkei RPF1's weigh in at 18.4lbs...

I have them, and have weighed them...that is what they weigh.. The 18x9 is actually a tad heavier at around 18.9lbs...

The PF01's i'm pretty sure in 18x9 were somewhere around 19lbs..
