Light Weight Wheels
I am planning to replace all 4 rims to some light weight ones.
Presently I am running 15 inch alloy wheels (don't know offset) with 195/50 tires. I would like that the new wheels would be 45 or near offset and 8 inch wide. I don't need a brand in particular although these are the requirements: - Similar to picture below. Black with outer red. Different design is accepted - Light weight - Price must not be overhelming - 15 inch size and 8 inch wide with 45 offset - Preferably from UK stores |

look into Wolfrace or Team Dynamics, always see ads for them in UK Magazines, seems like good bang for the buck...

you can get RPF1's and add a red stripe.

949 racing 6ul wheels.... I recommend those. You can get 15 x 7-10. 15 x 8 are 12.3 lbs each. I would think 45 offset would be too sunk in? I run 36 along with a 20mm spacer, so essentially I'm running a 16 offset. It sits just inside being flush when I run -2.7 degrees of negative camber.

Either the Enkei RPF1s or the Konig Heliums. Both are awersome!
