If I were more concerned with weight than looks, what are some good wheels to check out? I'm not looking to pimp my ride, so OEM sizes (sports version) are what I'd be interested in. And I'm not paying $3,000 a wheel, so I guess carbon fiber is out  . |
Enkei RPF-: 18" x 9.5", various offsets, 17.4 pounds. They also make an 18 x 10 that is, I think, 18.1 pounds or thereabouts. Some have said it fits on their Sports Package 370s; some have said it does not. It costs approximately $330--a bargain if it works. This exact same wheel is widely used in racing circles.
