How much do the traklites weigh? 15" slipstreams are advertised as 13.6ish pounds each.

I know that you can get a slipstream in 16x7, but bigger than that, I don't know.

Normally when ever i get a bug up my ass to look up wheels, i google search rota slipstreams and i find something.

so on a 02' neon, if i were to get 16" slipstreams, what offset do i need or does that matter?


sorry again for the newbie questions but i'm trying to get all my research done.

35- 42 i think are safe offsets.

don't quote me on that though i could be wrong.

your best bet is that little button that says search on the top of the page.

I have the 15x7 rota slipstreams with the 35mm offset and they weighed just under 13lbs each. The Rotas are cast and the Traklites are forged. The Traklites are stronger and lighter and about twice as expensive. If I could afford them I would go with the Traklites or the SSR type C!
