Youre not gonna find them anywhere else other than wheelmax.
Thats a brand that they have made specifically for them. They are all knock offs of other brands designs, and I can almost guarantee that they are gonna be pretty heavy, or weak.
Just a word of advice too, most light weight non-forged rims dont put up with the heavy loads of our heavy cars combined with sports like autocross and roadrace. Ive seen the FD rims stress crack, and ive heard of the Rotas doing the same.

When it comes to lightweight rims you kinda get what you pay for to and extent.

That pretty much sums it all up! All wheels are not the same! In most cases if its a knock off its just simply not going to be as good as the original. Most think that a wheel is just a wheel so why not just go with a cheap knock off one?! Well that is total BS. You get what you pay for and I'd rather fork out the money on a nice set of wheels once, then have to fork out money for cheap rims then have to fork out even more money when I messed them up! There is a reason why the original is more expensive then the knock off...and its not only profit
