Want to be serious about souping up the Mada?? Here you go, found out they are available for our rides to replace our stock wheels. 17 pounds per rim in a 18 inch for our rides. Was told the wheels have been put on 2 wheel drive Titans, but not the Armada's yet. Will hold the strenghth of our rides. Magnesium forged are 12 pounds in the 18 inch rim. http://www.wheelspecs.com/specs/wheelmodels/425# Rims have been backorderd for 3 months and the style has been around for years.

I had 3 sets of wheels from this manufacture their awesome and the strongest wheels I ever bought but 18" on the armada does not looks too good. just my two cents

Those are nice wheels and good quality but I too don't think it's gonna look good with the MADA. My 2 cents also.:D

Interesting .. a lot of Z's are running the VolkTE37s .. I've seen 'em on z31s too. Hmmm .. switch to TE37s for may Z (17s) .. then get 'em for the Mada (20s)??

LOL ...

The Contis on our trucks weights 42 LBS so that means the rim only weights about 32+LBS

According to Tire Rack, it looks like the Michelins are a bit lighter.

20 lbs a tire is a huge savings for weight. Put ligher smaller diameter tires on and you would fly. ;)
