These wheels look great. Are they (slightly) lighter than OEM wheels? Do they balance easily?

If you are speaking of the LC818's, they are about 5lbs lighter than the OEM wheels.

If i remember correctly, the fronts were around 23.7lbs and the rears were 25.5lbs.

For comparison, the OEM 18" Wheels are 28.5lbs in front and 30lbs in the rear.

So saving almost 5lbs in every corner of unsprung weight.

They do balance very easily.

Kayotik - Thanks for the info. Yes, the OEM weights are about what I've seen before.

Sounds like a great wheel and excellent value.

How do you like the Hankook Ventus V12 tire? I'm thinking of putting those on my C300 Sport this summer and would appreciate your feedback. Thanks.
