What is a good 16" or even 17" rim for the street? And S03 question.
Ok, my RE010 are worn out and I think one of my stock rim is bend from grinding on a rock that sticks out the sidewalk when I park 
.
I've gather enough money now to buy a new set of S03 and something else.
I am thinking of buying a good-looking, light, reliable 16" rims but cheap...and 5 lugs.
Yeah, I know it's hard to find...
So neither I buy a set of rim for street and use the remaining money to buy Azenis so I can finally have my stock rims to mount competition tyres(yay!)
Or I buy the S03 and buy another stock rim to replace the bad one....and the remaining money will be a 26mm rear swaybar
And the last question is: What is the right size of S03 for my stock rims? If I remember correctly, the 205-50 comes in VR and ZR...any benefits from getting the ZR since my car will never reach 150mph.

Thanks! That was a great weight guide.
Do you happen to know the S03 question I asked?
Edit: Just went to machiii.net and Rotas NOW HAVE 16's!! Checking it out right now.....$500 set with 5x114.3 and only 13 pounds for a 16"!
Can any insider verify their existence?

How about Enkei RP01? They're kinda old school but they're light, and they're pretty cheap now guess they're even cheap than K1 Racing.

on the S03's I went with the ZR and 205/50 is the correct size, last time I checked they didn't have 195/55. Besides you get just a little more contact patch with 205's
