    I posted the weight on the very first thread but it's for a 16X7 wheel. It weighs 15.5 lbs in the 16x7. The 17x7.5 weighs 16.4 lbs.

    What size spacers are those? They almost look a think too big to me.

    That makes sense. :lol: I just don't like the small 15" wheels, I think the 16" looks so much better but doesn't have the mpg hit that 17" wheels seem to have. :cool:

    well exactly, but some things just have to be experimented with
    and this beats spending the money first, only to decide it doesnt look good enough :)

    this might sound dumb but, Im getting to like it !
