I admittedly haven't done my homework on this, but how involved is painting hubs/calipers? I need to change out my front brake pads within a few months, so I might do it all at once.

Tell me about it. We've had some good rain here in West TN over the last month. I know you guys out in Texas are really struggling.

I didn't weigh them, so I can't be sure. But using the KISS method, I'd say they are equal to or lighter than my stock 17s. The tires are wider and taller, so they might be slightly heavier due to tires only. My gas mileage has decreased by about 1mpg, but that's the only downside I've seen. My handling and ride have vastly improved over the 17s.

Nope. I haul a lot, so I need the travel room and cushy tires. No bags, either...too much work and $$$.

I'm practically done with the exterior. From this point forward, all $$$ will be going toward engine mods.
