    Any 17' wheel over 17 lbs is heavy in any color.

    My 17's are just over 15 lbs. :Thumbsup:

    I am thinking about weight too...that's the indecisive thing about it. I love the filled arches with the 18s and this is going to be a car that'll be in shows, so I want that look-at-me factor. That being said, it's also my DD so killing performance and ride quality is bad too.

    What wheels do you have? I can't seem to find your garage to see the specs of your car.
