PES GP7 wheel project pics - UPDATED!!

Got some teaser pics for those interested. I have finally gotten my TPMS sensors in and installed on the wheels. Got some rear tires on and fitted.

Very nice eclou but can you give us size specs and weights on everything? Time for titanium lugs to finish it off!

I've talked to Tony too. Not sure how many "firm" commitments he has but he is looking for $ up front before he places any order.

I have to say, the combo of GP7's and PS2's are quite a bit lighter than the stock wheels and RE050's. My stockers are 49# front, 63# rear. The new combo is about 39# front and 52# rear. That is 42# of rotational drag reduced from the car. I can feel a very noticeable difference. The GT3 wheels to me are a performance de-grade since they are actually heavier than the turbo wheels.
