For the price and weight though I think they are a great deal! I spent 12 years fooling around with Miata's, which are real sensitive to wheel weight. Losing 5 lbs per corner over OEM wheels with the Sportlines makes a noticeable difference in ride quality on rough road surfaces. Great service from **********s and they were packed very well (dual boxed).

Now all I need to do is put on another 400 miles and I'll be rid of the mold release agent on the new rears and ready to rock!
Pictures please.

I plan to purchase a set of these very soon.
