I'm sure he knows what they look like. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rofl.gif I think he's looking for a pic of them on a GVR4.

Maybe don't limit your search to that exact brand, but just use 5 spoke with your search and you will see GVR4's with same style wheels. Enkei makes those too. As I'm sure others as well. Good luck

Those wheels are pretty darn heavy. All the XXR line is, IIRC.

They come in at nearly 22# for 17x7. Too heavy for my taste.

My 17x8's are a hefty 17#, and that's about the upper limit i was looking to get.

Enkei, SSR, and Kosei all make much lighter wheels, and most of them look good on a GVR4.

17lbs is pretty light for a strong cast 17x8. My LM's are quite a bit heavier (albeit stronger), but I notice no difference with them on the car.

yeah, 17 lbs. on that size is not heavy.

I don't know what my 17's weigh in at, but they are ultra light (maybe like 15 lbs)...not as light as my drag stars on my 'velle of course, but for a newer 17, not bad.

I am not excited about xxr wheels at all. Everyone and their sister has them, however. At $400 shipped for brand new wheels that will look OK on my car I will consider them. And they are fairly light.
