Default The Best wheels!!!

I'm going to get the ENKEI RP-F1 17" wheels. They only weigh

14.5 lbs. and I can't find any 17" lighter than that. How much

whp do you think that would free up? And does anyone no how

much weight that would save?

Hmm those look familiar.

They make 18s in a similar model that only weigh ~18lbs. I had them on the venge and I had no problem scooting down the track on them.

Hey, Todd,

Just sent you an email. Please post specs (sizes, offsets, weights) for the 17" sizes. These could turn out to be an excellent alternative to other lightweight (and more expensive) wheels I've been researching.

Thanx!
