Some of you probably know that I finally decided to sell my Radenergie R10s (to C's Bimmer) and switched to some 360 Forged Mesh Eight wheels. I still love the R10s but I wanted something lighter. I had ordered these wheels with the titanium fasteners but due to some mix-up, the wheels were done with regular bolts so they're shipping me the replacements. The wheels currently weigh 27.4lbs for the front 20x9 and 26.4lbs for the rear 20x10 (yes the fronts weigh more due to the thicker back padding than the rears). The titanium fasteners should hopefully reduce the weights by another 1.5-2lbs. For comparison, I weighed a 20x9 VIP Modular 3-piece wheel and it was about 31.7lbs. I think the R10s are similar in weight to the VIPs.
Anyway, here are some pics:

Thanks for all the compliments guys. I'm actually still trying to get used to them as I've had the black R10s on my last 2 E60s and even black wheels on my wife's MDX.
