Nice set of polished aluminum Performance machine rims with Bridgestone battleax BT016 tyres
120/70/17 front and 180/55/17 rear as rim is 5.5 width so no issues with tyre width.
Yes they are heavier than the oem 3 spoke. Looking for around £450.00 collected- Heathrow WLondon/Middlesex area

I could never tell by holding in my hands. I thought the PMs were at least equal. Thanks for the info.

However, The cast wheels sure are a lot easier to clean.
