Me like.

Me no like if these wheels weigh the same as my stockers. IMO buying wheels that are the same weight or heavier (size vs. size) than what you already have is a total waste of money.

In order for me to plop down $300+ a wheel for these bad boys, they would have to weigh about 18 lb or less for a 18 X 8.5" wheel.

I completely agree. I didn't see the weight on these wheels. I think the O.Z. Alleggerita HLT are just above 18, in a total shipping weight. According to OZ's website they are just under 18lbs for just the wheel. I've been eying them for a while, but i think I'll just stay with the BBS wheels.

Enkei RPF1 18x9.5 +15 weights 18.6 lbs so these wheels will be even lighter. Possibly -.2-.4 lbs lighter.

I'd seriously be interested in this wheels if they came in:

1) Low 18 lb range for a 18 x 9.5"

2) More aggressive offset than the stock +38. Around +22 would be nice, but not so much that I would have to roll my rear fenders

3) Darker titanium finish

4) Around $325 or less per wheel

Remember the higher the offset the lighter it is vs lower the offset the heavier it is.

A set of RPF1 cost roughly $1400-1600 for a set of 4. PF01 probably going to cost around the same range which is around $350-400 per rim.
