The chrome IS250 shown in Australia had black G-spyders. Hope this helps.

G-spiders are the shiz....what I don't get it how they are so heavy....they definitely don't look like they should be.

Looks = 9.5/10
Weight = 4/10

Now those would be serious boat anchors.....

There are loads of mesh-type wheels, just none exactly like the g's, though most others are much lighter.


Edit: like these:



Somewhere in the 20-22lb range for 19's....drool

I am not concerned about the weight....I really like them more than most other mesh type wheels, except the ones that are $800 and up a wheel...Those G Spiders are about $800 a set! I can have them redone in black for about $50 a wheel and bam, I am done.....

aren't the g-spiders only about a lb different than the stock 18's. Granted I know that one pound per rim is nothing to be sneered at, but still I wouldn't call them boat anchors.
