Default Light Rims!

as i have decided to stay with 19 inch rims on track i need to find some light ones that look ok at 19 x 9.5J et 30-35

i think these Wheel Experts look great, forged but made from some sort of aluminium and at 9kg, light compared with CSL rims at 10-11kg

anybody got any real commnet on this other than the ususal

I cant see a price on the wheels you're looking at, but when I was looking OZ were the lightest wheel available for the e46 M3

ive asked them for prices and where to buy from and just also realised that most rims are forged or cast aluminium

hwere is the weight of the OZ rims and do they have any nice looking ones (not too streetracer or jap)

Shimmy, just realised yours may be lighter, I was looking at 18" unsure of the 19" weight, I know what you mean about the jap type design but they are great quality wheels with the price reflecting it ......

Aren't the Ray's Wheels that Thorney has the lightest you can get?

Rays are certainly very light and durable, but not quite as light and more than ,likely much more expensive as Rays are top bucks

These i feel are more BMW like and not quite as Jap as the Rays even though i quite like the RE30 and Te37 Rays

Check this out:

Volks (Rays) TE37 19x9.5J



Advan RS 19x9J (add on 0.8lbs for 9.5J)



Alloy Technic B9 19x9.5J
