Lightweight Aftermarket Wheels With OEM Offset?
Hows it going guys ive been looking for aftermarket wheels with oem offset? Do you guys have any suggestions? Its understandble that wider wheels require less offset but Im looking for somes lightweight 18s with oem offset. Any suggestions besides the track wheels?

Best lightweight wheels for the value are Enkei's, checkout this thread:

offset really doesn't tell you anything unless it's associated to a width, and Z wheels came in all sorts of different widths
more specific? budget? define light, and what you're using it for?
remember, bragging about light weight wheels is cool and all, but mass is really what's important in a wheel (ie, where is the weight located, as it determines how the suspension interacts with the wheel setup).

There are plenty of wheels available with offsets similar to OEM wheels. Pick wheels that you like because you will not like the wheels I pick because its your money. I think I said that right.

MB Weapons (also known as JDM Atech eraser) are popular for autocross and drift. They are in the 20lbs range and have a great reputation for an inexpensive cast wheel, especially at their price. I have a set of 18x8+30 sitting in storage. I'd sell them, but they are so cheap to begin with, shipping would pretty much leave me with very little.
Enkei's are a higher quality wheel (with MAT process and whatnot) and considerably more expensive. Personally, I'm not sure I'd spend alot on a OEM offset wheel if you have any hopes of ever selling them. Going to take a big hit on price and finding the right buyer, who will want to run spacers. If money isnt a consideration, go Enkei. If it is, MB's are discussed at length on several threads here.

WOW! thanks for all the replies guys. Im looking for something in oem range meaning (height and width). I took a look at the rpf1's and the seem ideal as far as weight and cost but they have strange offsets that may require spacers. I want something that are light no need for spacers but remain the same kind of dynamic of a oem wheel. Wider wheels would be good for handling i understand that I want a good all around wheel. The more and more I research the more I look into the direction of the Z's track v1 or the lmgt4 but in 18s.
