for the right price, "they" make anything. An 18" forged wheel could weigh less than a regular alloy 15" easily. Plan on spending 2k for wheels of that caliber though, easily. Go for some average 16's and call it a day :wink:

Skip all the silly big wheels and get a 14" or 15" setup.
The Motegi trak lite and trak lite 2 wheels are very light. Listed elsewhere as 10.5lbs, I'm not sure why this guy says 9.9lbs? lol?

They retail for a little over $220, so that could be a good buy.

You really don't want anything bigger for pure performance.
