Giovanna Mecca Lightweight on Athens Blue g37

Finally got my wheels put on. They are Silver Giovanna Mecca Lightweights. For anyone interested in the rims, they do clear the Akebono Big brakes by about 2mm. They are very similar to the Stance SC5 except they have a larger lip in the rear. Car is lowered on Eibach Pro-kit

20x8.5 +35 245/35/20
20x10 +40 275/30/20

Nice look , they go well w/ your blue coupe, I noticed the wheels are "lightweight", happen to know what the weight is?

I'm not sure I never weighed them but by just picking up the rims and picking up the stock 19s. The weight seemed to be the same. According to giovanna these wheels are 2 piece built using spun cast technology.

These look very nice with your blue coupe! The offsets look great and the drop is just right- not too much, not too little, just perfect!

Thanks Man, Yea the roads in atlanta are pretty bad so I didn't want to go lower and I'm just not a fan of the hellaflush look. It's a daily driver so it has to be practical.

Yea i'm thinking about that but it would seem too time consuming to do. Maybe a good spring project.
