I'm on the 18" side but these wheels do weigh under 20lbs I believe...impressive for a 19x10 wheel.

Weight and tire choices suck. I do agree that 19's look good, but I like the look of more meat on the tire. I guess I have spent too much time at the track. I actually like the 17's http://www.zpost.com/forums/showthread.php?t=694514
