Step lip wheels are much lighter than flat lip wheels. Race prep on these wheels can also make a huge difference! Also different style faces weigh differently... There is a lot you can do to shave weight without sacrificing performance. Blaine wanted a light wheel similar to his Volkswagen design he had before and guess what he got just what he wanted and more with the extra lightness of race prep! These are light wheels and they are a lot light than my 370z wheels! Lol
Im comparing pictures/proof to just talk talk talk.

The 19x11.5 that i posted is not a mesh, race prep and step lip and comes in at 21 and some change.

I misstated the size... I stand by that I made a mistake those Porsche TT wheels were done about a year ago... And we have done several sets since then... Mesh is always the popular design. We do have a 370z coming out with 7 spoke mesh concave! It's going to be one sick setup!

To put everything to rest and put this thread back on track since it's unfair to the OP. We will start a new thread with images and videos of actual weights of components, hardware, cut forgings, raw forgings, tricks of the trade to have wheels appear lighter on a scale, and put real wheel weights into perspective for the community.

There are wheel companies on this forum that claim to unrealistic wheel weights and we find it unfair that a person seeking a light weight wheel is bamboozled by trickery, and illusions in order to move a product.
