Nice! I looked at these a while back, $450 is a crazy good deal!

Wheels are 28 lbs, not too shabby for a 20"

12.7kg per corner isn't too bad for 20"
About standard I'd say.

My 19" reps were 12.5kg and my new 19" enkei's are just under 8kg

Well finally after what feels like an eternity of looking for 20"s that I like and are available in the correct offset, stud pattern etc, I took the plunge! Vertini Magic Concave in 20x8.5 ET35 wrapped in Pirelli P-Zero Nero 255/35/20s. Offset is PERFECT, edge of tyre sits exactly flush with the guard. VERY, VERY HAPPY INDEED!

Wasn't too sure about black on black at first but I think it looks great. The ride hasn't been affected all that much either, a little bit stiffer but really barely noticable. I will say one thing, these Pirellis have mammoth grip!

Interesting design mate.
They look like a mesh/snowflake mix.

Loving the blackout look, you just need some black headlights/grill to finish it off

Cheers Clay, I'm considering the black out look, it appears that the rear tail lights of the face lift model may fit which would look good with a light tint IMO.
