How much if they are under 4k than I get them
The breyton GTS cost HKD$ 4.5k each for 19", 19'' - appro 13kgs = 28.6lbs <---- According from Keith info
Advan RS/RS-D la, 19x9.0 20.6lbs only. Less 8 lbs each wheel
<-------------- According from ET infoDo you think that Advan should price less than Breyton?
Of course lighter not means everything, but should be one of important factor for user to choice.

i can take it very easily with one hand with on efforts.
But you are right, the most important thing is the user's choice, the style is more important than the weight!!
We are not street racer, we just the poser
And, i dont need light weight wheels as i am very light weight already

I got all three Spitfire items at one time (the box, the wire set, & the Super Direct D ignition system). I have never seen my car can go such fast. The response is quicker (less lacking at low rpm), the RPM does not drop as fast as before, and the accelaration kicks in very fast beyond 3000rpm. Overall performance is excellent. Best of all mine doesn't has the starting problem like William had.
Apart from the ignition coils, are the others (box & wire set) be interchangeable with other bimmers?

Must go for taiwan wheel if want it cheap and light and new at the same time.
GTS look very good as well, would go for it if it's lighter.

The Advan is really light if its only 20.6lbs!!
As me and pinguhk took a 18" GTS on hands the other day and the weight was really impressive already,
i can take it very easily with one hand with on efforts.

Of course lighter not means everything, but should be one of important factor for user to choice.Cost is HKD2.4K each (18x8J), get a quote from a few resellers to see price tag, I guess it will be around HKD4K each.
