So what did you decide? I'll take the set of Racing Harts off your hands (for my race tires.)

What does a bare Racing Heart MSP wheel weigh? Just curious. Jim

Sure thing, as long as they're 7" wide and between 49mm and 55mm offset... (to be legal for stock autox.)

We won't know until we actually can weigh them. I think the MP3 wheels were over 20lbs, though. I don't think the stock wheels would be the best choice for racing, but if I could get an extra set cheap...

they are used and although not perfect, in really really good shape. Never been curbed or anything.....only thing is one rim now has a scratch almost an inch long thanks to the garage that took them off for me..... they are 7.5 wide so i guess thats no good for your autocross.....im not sure about the offset.

right now they have 215/45 Toyo Proxes T1S rubber on them with a little over 1 summer of wear, lots of tread left. Im thinking about selling potenzas that come on the MSP with the rims instead of the proxes, but i dunno, i could go either way.....

i dont have any good pics of them since they got the 1 inch scratch.....$1000 for the set with either rubber. if u dont want any tires, maybe we can work somethin out.

The MP3 wheels are 23lbs.

Gulp... 23 lb.s, that is heavy!!! That is a lot of weight for your engine to spin. I hope that the "lightweight" Racing Heart rims are under 20 lbs. each! I believe that 17" VOLK TE37 rims are only 14 lbs. each. That would be ~6 lbs. per wheel or 24 lbs. of total weight saving over 20+ lb. rims. I don't know the formula, but , but that probably equates to having an extra 10 hp or more just by having lighter wheels.

Nope. They're 7" wide, just like the MSP wheels.

im looking into it now because i didnt remember for sure, and it looks like my SSRs are 17x7 after all.

16.5/17 lbs a pop....

i weighed em recently and i think they were around 40 with rubber....so i guess my tires are 23 each......i dunno if that a lot or a little

http://www.wheelspecs.com/specs/wheelmodels/372&sort=pcd What offset are they? If you're really looking to sell them (and the offset is within +/- .25" of stock) PM me or something. Pics would be nice too.

Thanks,
