RMD Alloy Wheels Bulk Buy

I'm doing another Bulk Buy, this time on alloys...

They are the RMD Rally Design ones which look very similar to Team Dynamics Pro 1.2's but they are lighter. Made to the same spec as TD's.

They come in at 6.5kgs each without tyres.

7 x 15 Ford Fitment ET38 available in Black or Silver.

Rally Design do them for £285.60 for 4 plus postage.

I can get them for £255.00 for 4 plus postage.

Whats everyones opinion?

Can do them with Toyo R1R's 195/50/15 for an additional £290 R1R's are very similar to R888 just easier to get now.

Aren't TD Pro 1.2's ~5Kg's depending on fitment so this makes the RD wheels 30% heavier if indeed they are 6.5Kg (first time I've seen a weight quoted for these wheels). Or have I been caught out by the ambiguity of "they are lighter". Which one's are lighter?

15inch TD's are apparently 7kg

13inch TD's may well be 5kg

I thought 15x7 TD 1.2's were similar to OZ Super / Ultraleggera at give or take 5kg. I could well be wrong. Not sure what the 13inch versions weigh though!
