Thanks for the picture Figgz, do you have any ideas on how much they weigh?

And sorry to ask more questions but is the offset actually different front to rear, and are the width of the wheels different? (if so, what are they?) or have you just wrapped them in different width tyres?

Personally, whenever i have been running 7.5 inch wide wheels i have always used 215/40 R17s. Found the 45s gave a little rubbing and more sidewall flex.
Sorry but I didn't weigh them before putting on the tires :-/

Both the offset and width are different. In the front they are 7½" wide with an offset of 36 I belive, but in the back the wheels are 8½" wide and the offset is 34 iirc. This is why I wrapped them in different tires, which also looks good when the rims have different widths.
Of course you can run 215/40 aswell but I wanted to match the sizes of the tires as good as possible, hence the 45's.

I would actually like to see 8½'s all the way around but then you have to modify the front wings :blink:
