Mugen are too expensive. I was looking somewhere around $150 per wheel.

I like the te-37 but they aren't cheap. Try Rotas if you want cheap and light.

When it comes to wheels - "cheap and light" is technically an oxymoron - kind of like "military intelligence"

The Kosei K1's would be my "inexpensive" choice.

Yeah, but they're a little on the heavy side...Kosei K-1's are inexpensive and rather light for what they are, that's what I was going to get before I ran into a rather nice deal on my MF-10's.

rota's... there's been heavy debate, but no one has proven that the rims will easily break or fall apart on you...

Re: 16X7 wheels, which is lighter and strong. (eddielee70)

The best choices in my eyes are:

1.Kosei K1
2.Enkei RP01
3.Buddy Club P1 SF

If you have more budget there are lot more choices, like:
1.SSR Competition
2.SPOON SW388
3.Buddy Club P1 QF
4.Volk Racing CE28N

and so on...

Re: 16X7 wheels, which is lighter and strong. (DC2#428)

I'm looking at wheels that are light weight and strong enough for track abuse.
thanx for all the inputs.
so far: I have these wheel with weights. some of them I can't find weight for and don't know the price for them. I think the rota wheels are the best bang for the buck right now.

1.Kosei K1 15x7 13.5lbs $120 16x7.5 16.7lbs $150
2.Enkei RP01 15X7 14.3lbs $how much 16x7 15.8lbs

Rota Slipstream 15x6.5 11.9lbs $100 16x7 14.5lbslbs $120

Mazda Millenia 15x6 11.5lbs $60 hard to find

mazda 929 93-95 15X6 12.0lbs $50 hard to find
Buddyclub SF no size, no weight, no price

Enkei Tarmac no size, no weight, no price
