For that price, they have to be cast. Doesn't mean they're not quality, though. Honestly considering some for our Z.

My guess is that they weigh just under 30 lb a piece in the rear, under 28 in the front. Cast 19's are heavy! No hiding from that.

Does that extra weight hurt acceleration in a 332+ BHP car? No not really, but it will affect handling since it's adding to the unsprung weight at each corner.
