just wondering.. what are some really tough light 18" rims that look really good still? im planing to run 245/35/18 and 275/35/18..8.5 in the front 10 in the back.. i know 5zigen has some really good ones.. but im also concerned with look i know axis reverbs are real nice... anymore out there??

 

Ray's Gram Lights and Yokohama (Advan Racing) have some serious light 18" wheels

 

be carefull becuase some of those light rims can bend really easily if u hit like a deep bump at speed or a pothole...

 

How about some SSR's

 

any pictures??

 

BBS forged wheels

industructible and light

 

Try www.tirerack.com

They have more SSR wheels.

Here pic's of SSR GT3. They are not that light but they are pretty strong & looks great.

SSR is the only company in the world that uses Semi-Forged Technology.

The only thing is they filed Bankruptcy so I don't know it they are still available.

Fikse
Complete Custom Wheel (CCW)
Forgeline

bring the Brinks truck... light and strong also means expensive

 

SSR and BBS are higlhy recommended. Enkei is perhaps one rung down, but cheaper. Hard to go wrong with any of those.

 

have you heard of a company called...exel? are they any good?

 

I have heard of them, but don't know much about them. I know that Wheel Max carries these. I don't think that they are especially light. Kind of like ADR, I believe.

Be warned though, that with wheels (as with most things in life), you get what you pay for.

 

Lightweight and strong don't usually go along in the same sentence, unless you really want to pay a premium price. For greater strength, avoid cast wheels. Forged wheels are much stronger and lighter to boot.
