what brands sell lightweight drag rims for 5x114.3 lug pattern, i am looking for some rims and slicks to use at the track but cant really find any 5 lugs.

The 2nd part of your question isn't to clear. You have a 205 50 16 but you need to know the widest tire to put on your 205 I think I know what your trying to ask but I am not sure

WTF? The lightest wheel they list is 15.6 lbs and those are not even drag wheels.

Also, the smallest size they list is 17, and you do not want big wheels for drag racing. He is asking about (for example) those Weld drag wheels you see on RWD domestics that weigh like 8lbs out back with the skinny wheels in the front that probably weigh 5 lbs. Though I don't know what they have for FWD, I'm sure there is stuff available.

 

15 in drags weigh 12 lbs

OK.... My 15" Volks weigh 8.8 lbs....

edit, AHA! Here some import drag wheels on JEGS:

These are only 7.4 lbs:

 

sucks they arnt 4 X 114

 

Lenso's are very popular around my way

 

buddy of mine had lensos on his turbo civic and loved em...

 

they dont make lensos in 4x114......

 

this sucks i need a 10 wide rim for my new set up. i wonder how hard it is to turn around at the end of the track. have to run on the outside line to make a wide turn back haha

i was giving my tire size 205 50 16 to give you an idea of how lowered the car was so you didnt list too wide of a tire, i realize i cannot fit a bigger than 205 tire on this rim, thats why i listed lightweight drag rims/slicks, do they make 5 lug lensos, i have the five lug conversion on my 4th gen.
