    lightest weight 15", 16", 17"

    so far, the lightest wheels i've found yet is:

    15x7 +44 8lbs Work RSZ-R
    16x7 +45 15lbs O.Z. Ultraleggera
    17x7 +42 13.8lbs Kosei K1-TS

    i'm looking for the lightest possible rim & tire combo @ 205 width. 15" seems to be a solid contender so far....

    looking for +40 to +45 offset.

    anybody got better rim info?

    The Work RSZ-R rims were discontinued long time ago.
