Thinkin' about the 962's

Anybody have any info on the sportmax 962's? Pics of them on ride? Smallest size is 17's, right? Adding drop springs (tien s or df210's depending on rim and tire config) this month and want to get a good set of rims that will fit. I like lip on my rims, but not too many spokes or bars that's why I thought the 962's would look good.

Not completely stuck on 962's so if there are any other suggestions please post.

Who's Darren? I think that's the size I'm gonna go with. (17x7 and 17x9) I think those will work well with a tien or df210 drop. I don't really want to have to do anymore mods to the suspension, hubs, or fenders if I can keep from it.

I thought about the 962's but I read that the 18's were like 35lbs each and the 17's were 32lbs. Is this true or did I read some bad info?

I'm not sure how much they weigh, but after putting tires on them, they are heavy. Same w/ the 504s. The wheels seemed light, then w/ the tires, they felt heavier than they looked.

504's are nice and look really good. but if you want the 962's go with the staggered fitment. get that fat lip everybody want.

I think I'm gonna pickup some 962's next week. Lookin for new or used, but only in 17x7 size (silver or gunmetal). Sorry no staggered fitment here, cause it's way more cost efficent to rotate tires. (no money tree) I've hade price quotes from a few companies that are charging anywhere from $500-$600 shipped to 77062. If anyone knows of any better deals please let me know before the end of next week.
Thanks

Oh, by the way here are the sizes w/weights if anyone was curious.

Yeah I talked to Hikaru, but he only has gunmetal in stock and I'm really lookin for the silver one's. If I have no other choice I will probably get gunmetal, but there are a few places left with the silver one's. That's about what I'm lookin to spend though, around $400 or so shipped.
Thanks for the info.
