Got my new rims!

Finally got my rims after waiting for almost 6 weeks for a backorder! Don't know why it took so long but I'm happy with the way they look.

looking good, what did they run you, and what are the specs for the tires and rims?

Cost was $203 each, and they are R-1 Racing GTR6 rims. 18 x 7.5 using the stock tires; I'll switch to Goodyear Eagle F1's when these wear out. The rims weigh 19lbs each so they are just under 3lbs lighter than stock. The TPMS system works fine with them.

I decided to go with a beefier 6 spoke rim because everybody and their dog seems to have 5 spoke rims now days. Just wanted something a bit different but with more of a racing look rather than flashy street car look.

Very nice! And, you answered my perpetual "what do they weigh and are they TPMS compatible" questions right off the bat! :D
