Aye I've been looking at some Rays for my CS for a while. I had a set before that were 18 3/4 pounds for a 18x9.5 wheel. One thing is if you're patient you can get custom offsets for some of their monoblock forged wheels. Which I think is definately worth the wait.

Pity is with the offsets our crocs need it's near impossible to get a concave face to a wheel.

If you go to Tirerack website, there is a feature that lets you preview what these wheels look like on your car :-)

Thank you for your comments.
No, I do not have a spacer yet...
I really do want to lower the car but the roads in New Jersey and New York are not really friendly towards the lowered vehicles...

Can't seem to see the marking clearly, but are they 18's or 19's ? What tire size did you put on ? I was thinking whether to get the 18x9.5 or 18x10.5 for the rear. Any suggestion ?
