what size wheels? cause according to wheelspecs.com, 16's weigh in at 20lbs on the axis cups. the gramlights shown in the ad are 17's. i think they're pretty light considering the size. i was gonna get the gramlights in 16's but i've decided to save up more to get the te37's.

I think they are asking too much money for them, you could probably get them cheaper if you bought them as a package with tires.

Volks are nice, but IMO they're too pricey. And 17lbs. really isin't so light anymore. Hell, Velox has a 17" that only weighs 12.5lbs!!! If you want light and cheap, look into the Kosei K-1 rims. Right at 15lbs for a 17" and under $200 a rim from Tire Rack. Look good, too.

hey man, i LOVE that style wheel even if they are copies of advans :). my plan was to either get the gold advans or the bronze volk te37's on my integra, but all my money is going towards a turbo kit right now, so i'm just gonna have to stick with stock gsr wheels for now.

ADVANS RULE!

by the way, pobanaitsa, if you can't drag yourself to spending that much money on the volk gramlights, you could always get the rota attacks (gramlight copies) for a MUCH cheaper price.

these go for about $550 (set of 4) on www.1201aeromotiv.com in 17's (this place has probably the BEST deal on rotas plus the owner, Matt, really knows what he's talking about and he's super cool)

one thing i found when searching for wheels is that manufacturer claimed weight and real weight are NOT the same. i realy want to know what those velox wheels weigh for real, if they are even close to 12.5lbs they are worth the money. dont try to hard to find kosei k1s they are discountinued, and alittle heavier then 15lbs, i had some and they were closer to 17lbs
