Can you get a quick weight on the new chromes they send you without the tire mounted? |

Did you get those clearcoated to minimize break dust buildup? |

^^dunno if they come clearcoated or not, but they sure did bead water off nicely the first time I washed em....as for the weight Ill try and remember to weigh one..but I do remember the UPS shipping label said 62lbs..and that was for two rims packaged..so minus the cardboard and cardboard staples and the other rim....30lbs I'd say..I'll try and remember to weigh it though. |

I wonder how much it would cost to have the OEM's chromed somewhere, I'm sure it's substantially less. I read somewhere that the chrome eats away at the aluminum, I gotta find the article. |

^^these are OEM's it was $800 shipped..200$ for shipping...FL-CA, both ways...trust me, I called every chrome shop in my area, the only ones that would do it were down in miami, and they were more expensive than having the rims shipped....and I can't weigh the staples anymore they're already back in california  |

That is really surprising that it costs more to have them chromed ;o. $800 shipped is pretty damn good though, can't complain....except that one was bent I guess. |

looks good. Nikon. I like the way it looks from the back. Im going to have to get one of the spoilers. And also tint my tail lights. Im just worried that I will not like it on the stealth gray though. |
