That is a good price....(cont')
I am surprised they are that cheap. I guess CEC was way over priced as usual (one reason I went elsewhere for the Oettinger Kit).
I never really paid much attention to wheel weights myself. The design/look is first for me. I'll make up for it with HP. But I understand the importance of this for some. I guess 30lbs is pretty bad then. I have not weighed my LD1's. But I have a spare w/o a tire, so I will find out soon. They do not seem too heavy though.
Just be patient...you'll soon find what you are looking for, or realize you already found them. My choices are few because of my tastes. So it is quicker to weed those out that either do not work for my app or just do not have the style I want.
I discovered that you really have to see them in person, next to your car, or installed, to know for sure. Even with photochoping them into a picture, you never really know thats the one until you see them on the car. Thats the down side of it if you make the wrong choice.

Do you have any pics of your car?
Id love to see your current setup. If I was simply buying wheels for the looks I would have jumped on a set of Sportecs. But once again they weigh too much and from what ive heard there has been problems with the finish on them. Who knows, I still have plenty of time anyways, Im still running my snows right as the weather isnt all that great.
