I really like the looks of seven spoke wheels like the Motegi MR-7 and several others. Actually it seems like there are many different names on the same wheels, I don't know maybe I'm wrong. The problems is all of these wheels are in the 19 to 20 pound range, a few pounds too heavy. The Tenzo AV7 is another good looking seven spoke wheel but it too is over 19 pounds. Here is a pic of an Excel with the same looks. Does anyone know of a wheel that looks like this but is not so heavy?

can you still get the racing hart/rh evolution S7s? those have thinner spokes but look pretty good.

I guess maybe I'm to picky. The Tantrum is a good looking wheel and it is about 18 or 19 pounds, not too bad. The problem I have with a lot of the 7 spoke wheels, or many other wheels for that matter, is the emblem they put on one of the spokes. I f$#@ing hate it! I want all of the spokes smooth, no grooves, holes or emblems. The Motegi's have the emblem on them too. I guess I'm gonna have to sacrafice in one aspect or another :(

Different option:

check out this wheel:

14.5 pound 18" wheel (http://centerlinewheels.com/wheels_detail.php?mw_id=4&sw_id=27)

I currently have the 18" polished version and couldn't be more happy. The weight is incredible and for only $280/wheel, relatively well priced.

Oooh thanks for the advertisement :) Yeah if anybody is interested, let me know. They look awsome while "rolling", which is one of the reasons I got them....
