Ok heres the run down on those rims. They are 18x8.5 Zennetti Vega's with Falken ZIEX tires (245/40/R18, i will sell those with the rims they are in good condition). the rims are still under warranty so i can give you that also. I bought them for $2200, im hoping to get something close to $1500 for them, i dont know if that is out of your price range but we can talk about it.

One of the rims is peeling on the inside but nothing on the outside. If you want to claim the warranty you could get a new rim from a place in Union, i just dont get much time to go down there. They are off my car right now so if you want to check them out its cool.

Let me know if you are interested, i can assure you that there is nothing wrong with these rims aside from the peeling on one rim, but you cannot see it unless you look on the inside of the rim. The Falken tires are awesome and they are still in good condition, these rims have only been on my car for like 6 months and now they are off, i just want a new look.

Chrome rims are generally heavier than a non-chrome wheel, but these are considered to be not too bad. I never really noticed a difference in speed from the wheels. As for the springs i bought the eibach kit from a shop in Union. $240 for the springs $80 for the install. that is the same shop that i bought the rims from. You will have to get an allignment done after your car is lowered. The warranty is up in January, so if you want to claim it on the one rim that is peeling let me know. (im going to go down there if i get a chance to claim it but if i dont i will just give you the receipt for them, its really not that big of a deal but if it bothers you, you have that option)

Im selling the rims because im starting to run out of money, and id like to get myself an apartment and maybe another car. as far as fixing it, i had a couple of ideas to try and fix it, ill see what i can do. im in no real rush to sell them so just let me know when you are ready, you can come take a look at them whenever you want.
