Default Lightest sport compact wheels?
what is the lightest wheels out there right now? list brand , models, and how much they weigh. I know alot of people like volks but i cant afford it. I just want some nice decent light wheels for my 93 hatch. I was thinking of goin with 15' inch or 16'.
So if anyone have any info please post up thanks.

lightweight wheels RULE, but they're so expensive.

I like my konig traffiks.
they only weigh 12.4lb's at 15x6.5 and cost under 100bux each !

they're styled along the lines of the advanRG, SSR comp, buddyclubP1, etc
