sad, thing i called in this morning to make a reservation to pick up but they do not open on saturday, M-F only but i have to help my family out all day. so we'll see what happens later in the week.

None the less i am going to have to run spacers probably 10mm in front and 5mm in the back most likely.

Do alot of you guys not care about the weight difference? Alot of these wheels are heavier than stock ones. If I ever do wheels I'm making sure that the total weight with tire is less than stock. IMO there's no point otherwise.

Go check out wheeldude's web page. He has pictures of what I believe to be Soulific's SC with the Linea Corse Lemans, 19x8.5 & 19x10 in gold. They look great on it too , hope you don't mind me mentioning your car Soulific.

I have on my GS and I had them on my SC. I have the wheel for over 2 years with no manufacturers defects. I did bend one of them after GS was swalled by a 2 ft 15" deep pothole over the winter. I was on the phone the next day to wheeldude for a replacement. These wheels have faired waaaayyy better than the IForged Classics I replaced. I have the IForged in the shop twice a year for bending easily. Now to the pics. I don't know the weight and don't care because on the GS I cruise in it and don't race it. The SC is pushing over 400 rwhp, it doesn't feel the extra weight if there is any. But I now have XXR on the SC now.

On The GS:








On The SC:











XXR's on the SC: I forgot which model they are







I hope this helps with your decision.
