Question for Advan RG2 rims owners

Really like these rims but can't find confirmed weights anywhere. Have any of you weighed these rims. Particularly interested in 18x8, 18x8.5 and 18x9 sizes. Also, happy with the rims? Look as good in the flesh as in photos? Thinking of getting them in white to go with my WB 8. Thanks.

i wish i could help
but i dun even hv a scale at home

but i can tell you that by swapping the wheels(with tires)
they are for sure heavier than 19x8.5 te37, but i have 18x9 rg2

if u r hardcore in racing, i will recommend you to get the volks (they r still my favourite rims), coz they are lighter and stronger
for me, if one gold te37 pops up with the right offset and size, i will change it in a heart bit

if u r just for looks, advan rg2 should do the job fine

rg2 18x8=17.9
19x8.5 te37 = 20.2

Here are some RG2 knock-offs but are heavier (23.5 pounds)

Think that look really good in gun metal. Still can't get over the fact that actually fit an 8. 18x9 30 offset

You're surprised 18x9 +30 fits? It fits fine... you dont even need to roll fenders with a 245 tire.

It's per rim.
