They are 15 inch not the 17 pictured and weigh 17kg each with tyre, dont know how that compares to others?

Sorry buy I'm not convinced it's a great bargain; they are fitted with cheap and nasty Nankang tyres and Ripspeed alloys don't have a great rep for quality.

I just happened to weigh a Lexus 16" wheel today with a 225x45 tyre and that was 18kg. My 14" Superlites with relatively heavy R888s were 15kg each so those are about average really.

I know Nankang aren't great, but look up the price - for the the price of 4 Nankang 15 inch tyres of the same type - I got the 4 alloys as well, quality is good.

My favourite tyres are Falken and will fit them later

Whichever way you look at it, that's just over £50 for a new wheel and new tyre which isn't bad in my book!
