LIGHTWEIGHT Wheels

[demi9od]

23.6lbs isn't too bad for a 19" wheel. My stock 18s are 24 or 25lbs

Not bad, but not lightweight.

These are absolutely beautiful, but look like a NIGHTMARE to clean...

I gladly deal with that nightmare

Those dont even look that good and get the gram light version of that wheel for half the price.

I suppose if I could afford a set of those, I could probably afford to pay a professional to clean and ceramic coat them haha

These look very similar to the (much cheaper but around the same weight) Fast FC04s (18x8 @18.6 lbs):

And the 305Forged FT101s.

Edit: but ya, the Titans are forged vs the above which are flow formed.

Any idea how much the ft101s weigh?

I guess it really comes down to how much you are willing to pay for 19" light weight wheels. For a quality set of 4 wheels the VWRs look nice!

I'd prefer to have lighter wheels on a budget so I'll be rockin 17's when the time comes. City streets already took out one tire and 18" OEM wheel

I am using Motegi Traklite 17X8 +40. 17 pounds each. https://www.instagram.com/p/BgwpRcylryq/?taken-by=ramonsote1

I thought the traklite only came in 17x7?

Sure don't. They sell 17X8.

Wish they were 17x8.5

Well if the 305Forged FT101 mentioned above are 18lbs, they are running a spring sale for 20% off.

A set of 4 would be $800 (plus $75 for shipping) which is, relatively, really inexpensive for such light wheels. Only "downsides" are that they are flow formed instead of forged and 8" not 8.5".

Seems like a reasonable trade off for a 1k difference

Or you can get some konig wheels for cheaper and a much more well known name brand.

If you're going for 18s, get 18x8.5 et45'ish. Then you will not need a spacer up front if you want to go flush, and you can put the extra tread width of 245/40 tires to use.
