Rota is an incredibly light and strong rim, very popular in the racing series due to their relative low expense, a good set of 17" is about 175 american per wheel. 17" are about 12 -13 lbs.

Btw , I like the dark rims as long as it has the chrome trim, Blue cars look very race ready with white rims

I agree with you Mbow on the uglage factor. I have the Centerline RPMs, they weigh 12 lbs. and are real eye-poppers.
