Ouch, I called discount tire and they are listed at 25lbs each! I then asked how much a rpf1 was to make sure it wasn't an estimated shipping weight and they said a rpf1 17X8 was 16lbs..

So I decided to call back and see if I could get a number for TSW direct to verify this. No number for TSW but the salesperson was very helpful and said he would call on my behalf and ask.

So, not only did he call me back he verified that they are 17lbs!!!. I decided to order a set at $209 shipped each plus there was a $50 instant rebate as part of some promotion. Tom O'grady at Discount Tire was very helpful and if you want to order some wheels he can be reached at 1800-589-6789 extension 51879.

I didn't even have to Haggle!

Please weigh these when they come in. I, and I'm sure many others, would like confirmation of that 17 lbs.

Always good to know all the options available.

Wow nice wheels. I owned a set of TSW Hockenhiems and have always been a fan of some of their wheels. What size did you order?
