I agree 100% - I am debating whether to do an H&R drop now or wait until I send the car to RUF.

Chris, those wheels look very classy...nice choice! How much lighter than stock are they? If they are lighter did you notice any better acelleration or handling?
thanks, Mike

Very nice rims, the color compliments the seal gray very nicely!

Ray - thanks for the avatar - I'll change it when I get home and +1 for you...

They are (according to BBS) 21 lbs for the front (19x8.5) and 24 lbs for the rear (19x11). That is 4 and 7 pounds lighter than stock, respectively (from what I've seen posted as stock weights). The car feels strong, but not appreciably more because of the wheel weight.

The color is almost a perfect match for Seal Gray - I had no idea it would be so close when I ordered them. I had them on my Evo before so I was already in love with the RS-GTs...

Thanks for the compliments!
