So I apoligize for taking longer to weigh the wheels, but its been done. I only could weigh them with the tires though

-SSR 17x8 w/ 225/50/17 ~42.5lbs

Comparison:
-Style 104 16x7. w/ 225/50/16 potenza runflats ~ 43lbs
-Panasports 16x7 w/ 205/50/16 ~ 37.6lbs
-TRM 15x8 w/ 205/50/15 Toyo R888 ~32.1lbs

Its not that great of comparison because of the tires, wear on the tires vary + air anyway its just a bit of a comparison. The SSR's are definitely on the lighter side though for them to be 1" wider and taller then the OEM Style 104's with more rubber and still be a bit or the same weight.


I had completely forgotten that I some of that green home depot spray paint left, so I put it to use on the new bumper and side skirts! (Still waiting for someone to guess what they are a replica of..)



And FINALLY! I got to plastidip spray the Panasport's metallic copper:



I am very curious to how its going to look all together, but hopefully by the weekend I will have pics up!
