A few years ago, I think it was a guy from GT-Motoring said he might be able to do the finish, but I never heard back from him. Trust me, I would LOVE to do it!!

I like 5 spoke wheels so I picked up a set of Prodrive GC-05Fs in British Black.



They are forged and around 18 or 19 lbs, I think. No dish, but slight concave face on the rear wheel. They are staggered 17x7.5 +48 and 17x8.5 +54. Discontinued and I haven't seen many other sets on s2ki.

17 x 7.5 and it's 19 lbs? Sounds like a cast wheel weight more than forged?

Please post wheel weights as well, because this is important for these cars. I tried calling work to get wheel weights for the meister and had no luck/help from work wheels usa. And from what research i am doing, the Works are at least a pound or so over their SSR counterparts. But the works have more style options.....

I like the look of those garsons though.

Give the guy a break. First off I doubt they even weigh 18 lbs as other forged Prodrive rims run 15-16 lbs for a 17x7.5-8. And here is a short list of forged rims that DO run more than 18 lbs in a 17x7.5: BBS RS-GT, BBS RR, BBS LM, Hartage Design-E, Work Meister S2R, and various forged OEM rims from Subaru (STi) and BMW.

A lot of wheel weights can be found at www.wheelweights.net. Of course weights vary a little with offset but this database gets you close if the rim you are interested in is there. They don't list the Meister S1 2P or 3P though.
