So i am in the market for new wheels but thinking about breyton GTS or VMR 710

Question is do you know how heavy each rims are for both wheels?

Where do they make it from?

Yes, you'll need spacers for the Breytons. As far as wheel weights go:

Breyton GTS - Made in China
19x8.5 - 27.0 lbs
19x9.5 - 28.0 lbs
20x8.5 - 27.5 lbs
20x10 - 30.5 lbs

VMR 710 - Made in ???
19x8.5 - 25.5 lbs
19x9.5 - 27.0 lbs

Get the Breyton's, I've seen the 710's in my car before I parted it out and I did not feel it at all. IMO

Member poleposition has it in his car and it is looking sharp!!
