14.6 pounds?!??! Wow. They do look a bit like 16's in the black, though - at least in the pics.. sorry... but for that low weight in 17's? Great tradeoff, good choice, and the black looks really good on CR. How are the F1 A/S tires? They're supposed to be the cat's meow...

Thanks guys. These wheels do seem to have more of a 16" look to em' but I'm pretty much thrilled about the way they look. I think they compliment my blackout rather well. I don't have a lot of miles on the F1's yet, but so far I'm happy with these. The ride quality/road noise is very similar to the 16" conti runflats. for some that might not be a good thing, but I don't want a tire with a softer sidewall. Now I'm in need of some suspension work. A set of Alta PSRS's are very high on my list as well as deciding between coilovers, JCW or lowering springs.

HOLY COW!!! Those wheels are awesome!! I was going to get those but wasn't sure how they'd look and I didn't want to fork out over $5000 for them, but now that I see them <<<drool>>>

I've always thought so, too, because of how thick the outer rim section is compared to other wheels. The black looks killer and that weight is awesome.

Did you guys read my post? I said PRETEND it's lowered.
That's what I do...so far it's not working very well.

Exel TZ-10 in 18x7.5 I assume! One of the best looking wheels in my opinion. 10 spoked wheels just look incredible on the Mini.

HRE's are that expensive. I had a 17" Work VS-XX set like that which jerjer has....that's what we're talking about. I think I paid $2k for them. The HRE's....well, new, they are A LOT more. I got mine second-hand
