I found a company that sold some 8lbers but i would be too scared if i hit a pothole my rim would fold.

Im just looking for a basic 5 spoke in black or silver, 4x100.

14" for preformance purposes. Im thinking about matting them to some BF Drag Radials.

some hx wheels are 11.7 lbs i think and will fit some 205/50/14 drag radials i have some

 

Slipstreams for sale right here in Brampton. 15" though.

 

I'm using OE 14" Miata wheels and they're in the weight range you're looking for. You have to machine the center ring slightly and they're only 5.5" wide. You can usually find a decent set on Ebay for $75-125 per 4. I've bought 8 rims this way.

what about GramLites by Rays?

 

go with 15 inch rota slipstreams they only weigh 13.5 pounds.

Thanks for the advice. I will probably go with the HX wheels, your not the first person to tell me too. I belive they are 14"

how much do the 15x7 weigh? that much more? and im assuming that the traction would make up for the little extra weight? any thoughts on this? sorry to jack the thread.

 

Your not really jacking my tread at all.

If a 15" rim would improve 0-60 and 1/4 times over a 14" rim of the same weight i would like to hear about it.

Im running aprox 175-185HP at the flywheel.

Buddy Clubs are pretty light right? are they any good i don't really know. i'm interested in what people say about them

15 inch wheels wont give you better traction the traction is in the width of the tire but the smaller the wheel the less the flywheel has to do to turn that wheel.
Rota slipstreams would be my personnal choice.

i was implying to the width of the wheel. im sorry if you were agreeing but it didn't seem like you were.
