Who makes lightweight 13" wheels good for autox duties (in a 4x100 bolt pattern)? I was thinking 13x7 would be nice, or even 13x8, but I don't want to spend a ton of $$.

If they are all expensive, then I'd consider a 14x7 or something around there.

 

Someone (johng?) posted earlier about his cheap steelies ~10 lbs from willamette wheel (i'm sure that spelling is wrong). $250 a set in 13x7 or 13x8. We are looking for 7.5 if we can find it, otherwise it will be these 13x7.

There are also a set of 14x7 wheels on ebay right now for $40. Search for 4x100 wheel and it will come up. Not sure how much they weigh tho.

Wilamette Custom Wheel makes lightweight "autocross only" wheels for $52 per wheel in any backspacing you want. They do "road race" wheels for the same price, but they're a bit heavier. My 13x8 autocross wheels are 10lbs each using my OEM Honda centers. My 13x7 road race (track event) wheels are 15 lbs each. They do really great work, but unfortunately, they don't do half sizes (sorry Matt). I have their phone number at work, so I'll post it here tomorrow morning.

Here's the 8's.

Other than johng's special wheels, I think Keizers and Panasports are what you're left with unless you want to get really expensive. Not sure of the prices on the 13X7 and wider sizes, though. I know Crosser has 13X7 Panasports, and his roommate has 13X8 Keizers. And RacerMike has 13X8.5 Panasports.

Here's some info on 14X7s:
