    funny you say that...the padding was minimal, however the wheels didn't get damaged...

      theyre probably 18+ lbs + 2 lbs for the spacers . . . .

      i'm not into faux multipiece with those fasteners, nor am i into spacers, but if you dudes are into them, go for it

      now everyone will be rockin the faux RS and be looking quasi-madtight

        My rims didn't have a lot of padding either, just some styrofoam and plastic wrap around the rims to avoid scratching. They were 100% perfect when I recieved them.

          lifting them, I would doubt they are even 18lbs - if anything they are less. If I get a chance tonight I'll weight them and post it...

            When they first came out I swear they were listed with a 25mm offset. Was this a typo? Spacers suck.

                  Ditto. I don't even like the look of the fasteners even if they are actual multi-piece. They just ruin the look of the wheel.

                        So very true. Sad indeed. I'm always looking for that perfect set...

                            In my experience they suck because they are expensive and are a pain in the ass to deal with unless you have studs (also expensive)
                            I would rather have wheels that were meant to fit my car in the first place.

                              it's no internet myth that spacers add costs to the price of the wheels that do not have the right offset to begin with for our cars...

                                It's the price you pay for buying cheap wheels I guess.
