    Companies Selling Light Weight Wheels?

    Im looking for some light wheels for my car, either in 15x7+'s or 16x7+s but cant seem to find any light wheels except Rota Slipstreams, and Kosei K1s. So I was wonder what other options I have, that I might not know of and you guys can help me out.

    Thanks,
    Amirani

      If you're willing to get spacers, there are numerous lightweight wheels for miatas and civics on the 4x100 bolt pattern. ADR seems to have quite a few that weigh almost nothing and don't cost much. Check ebay. I've done a little looking, and one can get a 15 lb 16x7 set of wheels and spacers for about $450. If you go used, the deals only get better. I saw some lightweight Lensos with tires for a miata go for $300. If you want a good deal just be patient and flexible with what you want and it will come.

        ADR wheels bend easy.....Amirani I would look at the Kosei wheels or Compomotive wheels but they are pretty damn expensive.

          As well as being rather heavy as they make emphasis on durability for rally applications.

          These guys make pretty light custom applications:

                Thanks for all the repsonses, I looked for Konig Heliums, and I cant believe how light they are, 15's only weight about 10.8lb! I need to put money aside for those.

                What do you guys think about Heliums? Any pictures of E30 with similar wheels?

                Thanks,
