when I bolted up the rear wheels I was amazed at how close to the fender the 9.5 inch wheel was. IMO the perfect size as the 275 tire is not stretched.

the wheels/tires weighed in at 52 rear and 4- in the front. Almost the same weight as stock rims.

The wheels alone weigh ~20 and ~19 rear and front respectively. With the S03 tires they are almost the same as stock

The wheels are far lighter than stock, and most other aftermarket 19's from Rays. S03's are notoriously heavy, which is why your setup is about the same as stock.

I love these rims, BTW....awesome track wheel too, if you get the 18's.

Do you have springs? If so, what brand? I have a CS also and will be in the market for some new shoes soon. I have some Hotchkis springs on the way and was curious how new wheels would ride with them.

I have tein basic coilovers with a 0.8 inch drop in front and a full 1 inch in the back. The ride is definitely stiffer than stock with the new wheels anc coils installed. You feel every crack in the road, but the improved handling and looks are definitely worth it.
