Default Good choice, in my book.
Personally, I'd rather buy new wheels every few months than sweat every time I see a pothole with overpriced HRE's on my ride.

Those looks GREAT but is 8.5 wide enough for an S4 widebody?

Default Estimated weight is 23 for wheel and 24 for tire. Still about 2 pounds lighter than stock.
But I'll try to get it weighed if I can find an accurate scale.
