Centerline Rapid 17"

i think they look cool, figure some 17x8's with some aggressive street tires.

any idea on how much they weight?

Those are nice I would get 18s though I just think that size looks better with the proper tire on it of course. PM f8lz71 he has some centerline 20s Im sure he knows the weight of them with tires and there wouldnt be too much diff between the two since they are forged wheels and not chromed.

Centerline makes one of the lightest wheels available. They claim to have the lightest 20's on the market just like mentioned above because they're forged.

If the price is cheaper go with the 20"s,the only thing is that the tires will be a little more. I personally have 18" wheels but my truck is slammed. If i were to go with 20" wheels i would have to go with some really low profile tires. On my 18"s i have 255/60/18 and with my drop it looks killer. Tucks really nice. The only thing is it rubs when i hit big dips in the road.

Yea, at Centerline they're overstocked, but you still get the warranties and they're new and shipping is reasonable.
