EXACT same setup! Think I have to wait another 3 weeks. Tires in; just gotta wait for the Sevas'.

Yeah, aftermarket wheels require very THIN lug nuts. Had to change mine when I got the Bonspeeds.

Before getting them mounted, I STRONGLY encourage you to either:

a) get a special lug socket w/plastic surround to avoid scratching the wheel, or

b) get "tuner" lug nuts where the "key" goes inside the lug nut; thus COMPLETELY preventing any "swirl" scratches on the wheel in the lug nut area.

Dang those look good!
Yes they definitely need the thinner lugs. 19x14 do the trick nicely. Took all day to find someone that had them, but all good now. Finally got them on (6:36pm)

Thanks.
Stock SRT wheels (with tyres on) 25.5kg
Sevas wheels (with tyres on) 30kg. I only measured the 10.5 so maybe the 9 could be lighter, but at only 5kg difference (and bigger tyres all round than standard) very impressed and pleased with the weight.
