I am here in Chicago. When i bought my car back just after christmas and managed to cut a deal to get the g-spiders with my car not to mention a nice cut in MSRP. I feel like i stole them. I had to part with them for the winter though and bought the dealer's snow package as well with the 06' base GS rims and the blizzaks. They are storing the summer tires and g-spiders for free!! its a good thing i got them that early january too because two days later it snowed. But my nice shoes will be back on hopefully by the end of the month when the "lake michigan" coast is clear.

No you don't, they're already surprisingly heavy as is in 18s, I can't imagine how much they'd weigh in 19s . . .

Has anyone put on the G-Spyders on their AWD IS? I was considering getting 4 18x8 wheels from Sewel. Just wanted to know if anyone has tried this?

That's what I've been suspecting. After switching from stock 18" rim to G-Spider, I got a feeling that my car is heavier.

Maybe it's just me, but does anybody know the weight of the stock 18" rims? For all 4 IS350 G-Spider wheels, they're weight almost 120 lbs.

The G-spiders weigh 1.5lbs (each) more than the stock 18s . . .
