I have looked at several forged 3 piece wheels. None of the ones I have reviewed are "light weight". Is there no such think as a light weight 3 piece wheel? (Lightweight ex. 18" wheel 17-18lbs)
Anyone w/ pics of this wheel on an S? Are these heavier/lighter than the WORK Meisters ?

 

if you want a lightweight rim going 18" isn't a smart move, neither is going with a 3 piece wheel (which are generally heavier)

lol, CCW makes some decently light strong wheels. I'm sure someone makes magnesium 18's, they'll just cost a lot.

Not for a 17-18".

8Lbs is more for a 15-16"

 

there is really no point of getting 3 peice wheels. big wheels does not = light weight. get volks.

 

I guess I am really trying to get some "bling", w/o too much of a loss of power to the wheels. My taste leads me to look at wheels like the Superleggera III and the Miesters, but i'd of course rather have the weight of many light weight one piece wheels like slipstreams and ce28ns for example, but I don't like the way they look.

Is there no happy medium? I may have to consider something like the Enkei RPF1. Arrrrrh!!!
