Plain ol 15x6 black steel wheels? Should be able to pick them up at a salvage yard for about 10 bucks a piece.
Where does it say they are only 12 lbs? That's pretty light for an aluminum wheel of that size, let alone steel.

I sent them a message, they said shipping weight would be 12.74lbs each.
Our arizona salvage yrds are way overpriced, plus i want some nice preeety ones:o

I'm with Mike on this one. There's no way those wheels weigh 12lbs, not even close.

Here are the weights of those wheels from the Mfr.

Looks like the weight of the 15x6 is actually 24lbs each. Maybe they were only going to ship you half of a wheel in each box? lol

I wouldn't. They are somewhat desirable and dangerously fragile. If you push your car at all, I would be afraid of them breaking. If you shop around, you can find a nice set of aluminum wheels, wider and lighter than Fiberides for pretty good prices.

Do you know if these will fit? i know the bolt pattern is right, but the backspacing and offset have me a little worried at offset 42 millimeters backspace 5.65 inches

I had +48mm on my car and only had minor rubbing issues with a 17x7.5 rim. Granted, a little wider, but not too much. I would think +35-40mm would be ideal.
