Anybody have pics of the Motegi - Mr7 (top wheel on the link) on they're car?

Also anybody know how much they weigh????


Finally, does wheelmax give you decent tires in the wheel combo's?

Thanks!

From Motegi's website:

17x7 +40mm 24.5lbs
18x7 +40mm 27.5lbs

Pretty heavy.

Shit I was like the first around my area with the gun metal ones then all of a sudden people come out of no where with them. Then I found out they were selling them at sears and other local tire shops. They are mad heavy, I put them on my Ep for awhile and the car just didnt handle the same. They looked really nice wish I had pics.

Damn, how much does the stock wheel weigh?



Also, howcome you took them off? Just weren't original enough or something? What did you replace them with?

Ive been lookin into the same wheels. If I were to get the MR7's I would get white, but MR3's I would get silver. Then im lookin at some RH C2's also. Motegi makes some damn heavy wheels, but i still love em. I did a real quick chop of some white MR7's on my car and i love the way they look. I was tryin to go for a Neuspeed race drop too but I dunno how accurate it is...

If you plan on getting might I suggest these then:

Motegi Tantrum 17 x 7.0 @ 19.92 lbs for $256.19
http://www.konigwheels.com/images/154_b.jpg

These are the ones I plan on getting in white.

Yeah, I actually found those, and plan on getting them.....what are some decent priced tires that are good? Nothing too crazy

disc tire co. only allows me to select 2 tires on they're website w/ the konig tantrums

Look at Racing Harts Cp8's I dont know if they have them in white but check them out. If I cant get some 17x7 or 8 Ce28n's in bronze then I'm going fo the racing Harts. Come in at less then 15lbs for 17's.. I still have my Motegis and they are fuckgin heavy. If you plan on going show and haveing slow ass accelleration then go for them, but if you want to have a nimble light feeling ride in your car get something light than stock or very close to it.

I'm not sure if you were talking about the Ce28n's or the Cp8's, but if you were talking about the cp8's they are 17lbs for 17's: http://www.scirocco16v.com/tech/wheelwieghts.htm
And yes they do come in white: http://www.wheelmax.com/Wheels/racinghart.htm#CP8%20 scan down to see them
