AGAIN: Giovanna Corsicas weights

i'm looking for another rim weight. this time it's 18x7.5 Giovanni Corsicas, non chrome. i can get a deal on these with Kumhos, i didn't really want kumhos but oh well for now they will do.

What's the rush? It's winter time, you don't want to be rolling on those rims in the snow, or do you .

no but i found a good deal on them and now is the time since no one else is in a rush the price will be better. kinda like buying a mustang/camaro/300zx/ect. buy it in the winter and elt it sit, you will get a better price. plus these rims are SO HOT. i love the outer rim bolts/rivets look. mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

They most likely are heavy...

...but who cares, get some big ones anyway. They are my favorite rims too.

damn it. i'm just gonna email the guy and see how much the rim/tire combo weighs. if it's less than 50lbs, which is still heavy, but less than the stock ones i might consider them.

Yeah... that style is becoming old really quick also. The 2002 deserves better, and you've got all winter to save and think about it.

Try about 25-28lbs. Low profile tires are much heavier because of the extra reinforcement of the sidewall and heavy duty steel belts.
