Default Lightweight 16 x 8" wheels?

Anyone know of any lightweight (around 14 pounds) 16 x 8" wheels with the 4 x 100 bolt pattern?
The RH CPO35 fits the bill, but it is about $400 per wheel. Anyone know of anything cheaper?

thanks
Ben

16x7 isn't an issue...I need 16 x 8 to fit 245's.

GAB's come in 16x8 but the offset is +38/32 or thereabouts.

PS- don't know how light they are, but it's a shot as they're not as expensive as other wheels on the market in that configuration. Good luck.

What kind of car? Good luck fitting 245s and 16x8's on any FWD Honda product.

I'm planning on using the widened fenders posted a while back, but I'm handy with fiberglass so I'll make wider fenders if those don't work out.

i think he is referring to the fenders i have...
sorry about the wait, i emailed you. on a better note, you might want to try at least a 9 inch rim with the 245's, and a 5 1/2 backspace.

sorry about the wait, if you still want them i could have a set made up, or you can come down and get mine and inspect them in person. on a better note, you might want to try at least a 9 inch rim with the 245's, with at least a 5 1/2 backspace.
