Winter Set up

My wheels and tires just arrived today from Tire Rack. They look great hope to get them mounted this week. Bridgestone Blizzak 225/65R 17 Mounted and balanced on sport Tuning.

Congrats. Looks good.

Tire Rack doesn't list the weight, are they lighter than the OEM wheels? I lost an incredible 7 lbs. per wheel when I went with the OZ Alleggerita's. The difference in acceleration shocked me. Much peppier feeling due (I imagine) mostly to the loss of rotational mass.

Nice wheels! what did it costing ya?

im wondering why tire rack doenst have a steel rim option...

The price was 1,000 with the shipping. That's with receiving them mounted and balanced. Its worth it with the possible Chicago Winter that will hit at some point. The wheels do feel light but not sure on the weight.

Nice! Post a picture if you can once they are mounted. Would be great to see how they look on the vehicle!
