What are the lightest wheels out there???

[gstspyder1998]

I'm looking to replace my wheels on my car and I was looking for lite wheels out there. I know Volk makes them, but are there any others that you guys know. Also post some pics if you know of any.

They only have a few models and the only one I like is the Subzero.

Anything else out there that makes lite wheels and looks pretty good?

Volks and Racing Hart make the lightest wheels.
Depending on offset and width the 16' TE37 weigh in around 10.9-11.2 lbs.
That is what i run on my car.

I think the Volk TE37 Mag.'s are about the lightest.

What size do you plan to get? There are more companies making lighter wheels than there used to be. Depending on what size you want, there will be a few choices. Then on the other hand there may be none. But list the size you want.

Velox makes a pretty lightweight wheel -- the Pg-5s. Here's a link:

12.5lbs isn't too shabby...

Centerline makes a very light wheel too. The 19" weighs 15 lbs and the 17" is 13.51 lbs. They're forged and pretty inexpensive when compared to say volk and advan.

I am looking for 17" wheel's. I am buying a big brake kit, so I need to upgrade my wheel's and tire's.

What's your budget? That has a big affect on your choices.

Around a G, but I looked at my rotors and they are 12". They can fit 16" wheel's, so I may not need 17's.

racinghart makes some of the lightest rimz man, my personal favorite are the type C2's but not th eevolution serious, thos are the cheap one piece series...the c2's are 3piece and are very light, i don tknow the weight but somone else might be able to tell u cuz anyone who knows rims, knows that racingharts are tite

Racing Hart wheels aren't that light. Very nice, strong wheels, but only average in weight. Except for the CP-10's or something like that.

SSR Competitions are very light and a few DSMracers use them. I have heard they have soft lips and bend easily. I think they look cool though.

17X7 weighs 12.9 lbs
18X8 weighs 16.0 lbs

I think Volk has a brand called gram lights that look really good and are fairly lightweight.
Also, 5zigen has the proN1 that is fairly light in weight and on your wallet.
check out www.wheelmax.com for some good pricing on the proN1's

those are the lightest rims on the market only weigh 13.5pounds the 17's

 

[kilurv8]

Hate to burst your bubble but I posted a set that were lighter and so did someone else. Also, the page you linked to even lists them off at 14.6 lbs.

 

[snox135]

Yeah Centerline claims they are the lightest rims on the market I have yet to see a rim as light as the TE-37 Mag.'s
