Really? Hopefully not heavier than the stock ones. Anyone know exact weight. And are the Volk GT-C's lighter than these?

I don't know if they're heavier than stock 18's, but they have more rotational inertia and they make the car slower.

wired 24/7, did you have to do anything for the 255's and 285's to fit?

the popular choice seems to be 245/275, but i think thats going to look too streched.

Rear fenders were cut, that's all. It took the guy at F1Motorsports like 3 mins tops.

Damn, that sucks. I definitely need a wheel that's not going to slow me down and still looks good. Too bad, because this wheel definitely looks awesome.

Wait, are you referring to the rotational inertia as to the 1 inch bigger wheel than stock? If so, no biggie. I can live with that. I think the lightness will make up for that.
