Those are the Work VS-SS. They're nice, but kinda heavy. I went with Fikse FM/10's instead.

How much do they weigh? Did you actually weigh them or infer that they are heavy? Reason I am asking is because I can't find any weigh info anywhere on the Work wheels.

Thanks

Since Supras need all they can get to look better, these rims would look nice.
You shouldn't worry about weight you drive a Supra!

I have a staggered set with 8 on front and 9 on rear.
I may pick up a set of 18" for the rear.

You have any pics of your car with the Fikse FM/10's on it? I was looking at those for my '87 TII.

Rishie told me they were around 24 pounds for the 17x9.5's. That's heavy. Those were the rims that I originally wanted, but after he told me the weight I changed my mind. Chosing rims is an ordeal ...

Of all the rims I've seen, I think those VS-SS's are the best looking ones around. If you like 'em, screw the extra pound or two, just get 'em.

Actually I decided to go with the SSR GP-O Decolte Evolutions. I ordered 18x9.5 Front and 18x11.0 Rear. I'll probably run 265/35/18s front and 305/30/18s rear. should be here in November sometime (I hope!).

Here's a Pic... These are polished.. mine are painted silver spokes.

hey uhhh....Mpressiv ....please read the post before you respond to it. It will keep you from looking foolish in the future. It's not my car but I wish it was... wide-body kit and wide-*** wheels. I would take the tape off the headlights though.
