If you want light weight and motorsport themed - Team Dynamics Pro Race 1, OZ Ultraleggera, BBS LM (very rare in 5x100 though), etc etc

 

Speedline and Compomotive are big fat heavy sods.....

I always thaught that comps was going to be a nice light wheel

I think it depends what Compomotive wheel you go for, If you go for a true motorsport wheel then you'll get something pretty light, like my CX-R's.

Ill have a look at the cxr's not sure wich ones they are i love rota grids ( think thats the right name ) but can you get them in 16s as i dont want to go any bigger then that really ! After running 9s all round i just want a car that handles well and does not rub lol

There close but Id be surprised if they were lighter, did you weigh them? They are light for 17's. Lightest wheels Ive had by a long way were the Team Dynamics ProRace1.2's.

RCs are 7.5Kg IIRC. My 17" ProRace 1s with Continental Sport contacts were over a kilo lighter than an OE Speedline with budget 15" tyre!

Not sure really, they were £850 with tyres new 1 year ago, the only rubbing is fronts at speed with big dips in the road, but the car is very low

I second that of MarkFoster, as I have the same, and they a really light. So much that you have to lift them compared to another set of 17! * 7,5" to really believe it. Great quality and ball polished too.

OZ ultraleggera may be as light? Compomotive in magnesium, but they have an expirery date and is very sensitive to weather.
