Does anyone know the wheight on the maxxim screech's or the rota flashback's? I know that most people dont like "knock off" wheels but Id rather spend more money on tires than wheels.

Rota's 15x7 +40
Maxxim's 16x7 +38 13.6 lbs
And found another sat the same style, but still can't find the weight. :mad:
Drag DR20's 16x7 +40 12.7 lbs

Really looking at the Maxxims but don't know if they will rub because of the offset being lowwer. If that might be a problem I'll go with The Drags.

Maxxim, 16x7, ET38, OEM size 195/50/16 should be fine.

will 2mm of offset difference be the deciding factor on whether they rub or not?

Not sure thats why I brought it up. I dont honestly know. I'm thinking it all depends on tire choice. But I'm still not gettin the info I wanted. I would like to know how much the weigh each. I'm pretty sure their close but still. Any help would be appreciated. And I have look and searched.

Don't have the weight for you, but yes 2mm makes a significant difference on our cars.

So would +40 or +38 be better? edited the third post.

Ideally, ET42 or greater works best up front. With 15/16's, if you opt for ET38-40, then run 195mm rubber. With ET42 plus, you can run 205mm rubber.

Alright. So I'll go with the Drag's cause thier lighter and have the higher ET.

Do you think I'd rub with just the Tein springs. Bout the same height but softer, obviously. Cant really afford coilovers on a college budget. :frown:
