Rims

[MitsuGSTspyder]

I'm looking for suggestions on rims. i'm wanting a 5 or 6 spoke design but the main reason i'm on here is that i want something lightweight but all the websites i look at dont show wheel weight.

Get metal ones.

Rays Gramlites are, well, light. You might also try using the shipping page of a website for the weights, add them to your "shopping cart" and divide the shipping weight by 4, that SHOULD give you a rough estimate.

Anything from Rays Engineering (Volk, Gram Lights) is always a good pick. Also anything from Enkei (Advan, AME, Enkei Racing (not the cheap Enkei crap) is good too.

There is much more to a wheel then just being light. Any company can really make a 'light' wheel. When choosing a light weight performance wheel you need to know about wheel strength, flexibility and stability.

If you want a light weight strong wheel then look at a split spoke design. OG-Made.com (importer for AME wheels) mentions: "the classic Split-Spoke design is considered to be one of the strongest and lightest possible wheel design... It's known to be true due to its architecture and has become synonymous with Enkei. It has something to do with minimal material used while maintaining optimal strength. It also has one of the highest levels of heat dispersion from brake calipers."

Wheels I like in order from most affordable to more expensive...

the Volk TE37 are the best wheel ever... I love them. Too bad volk and ray's wheel are so freakin expensive. The Advans look pretty good to.
