i had some volk GTPs they weighed all of about 15lbs with tires but they were also $575 a rim with no tires

 

you aren't going to find ANYTHING light w/ chrome on it. what do you concider lightweight? volk is the best out there but you gotta pay to play.

 

but anyways i know there are a couple bransds of carbon fiber rims and the ones ive seen look good i dont know what brands they are but i know they look good. from far away just looks like black till u get close

 

and for a set ur looking at about 7k. worth it? NO. volks for 1300-1600 and ur 4-5lbs heavier... just make up for it in HP.

 

motegi's also a pretty good brand, they sell a lot of light weight wheels and i dont think they are quite as expensive as volks

 

yeah carbon fibre is stronger than steel, but steel is also way more flexable because carbon fibre is a crystalized structure. so in the sense that if you hit a big pothole it could shatter your rim apose to slightly bending it. so no need to be calling names here sebba

 

I can call KD an idiot if i choose : )

sorry i didnt mean chrome. i meant black with a silver outline like you know not BLACK! lol. it was 500 and change for all 4 no tires and i cud pick them up with my finger. i think they were driv or drif or something like that. there name brand, it was in a catalog with all the other name brands. Any other options in that price range? the most ill spend is 700 for all 4. yes im cheap but only because i found these for 500 and i could lifet them with my finger....well my strong finger lol

 

well cheap won't buy you much in this game pal. 700 bucks probably won't get you anything under 18lbs or so.

Get435 those CF rims are 14lbs.... Volks weigh as little as 12.

I've seen a set of ACTUAL carbon fiber rims (i.e. ALL carbon fiber) but can't find the link anymore, i think they weighed 8lbs or some rediculous number.
