Wheel WEIGHT list!

My Dronell D-Power TS-06 in 17x7 weighs 20.8 lbs. Is that decent???

Wheel Weight List

PS- I damaged one of my wheels and cant find this wheel NO WHERE, I found out its discontinued in USA, and is such a beautiful wheel. Where can I find it? (be reasonable, don't say Japan cause I cant go there)

20.8 lbs is pretty heavy but then all large Cast wheels are Heavy.
My 17X7 Axis Se7ens are 19lbs.
but my race Rota Slipstreams 15X6.5 are 11.9 lbs.

Makes a big difference in perfomance.....

I think the stock steel wheels are 16 lbs or something. so any thing heavier will slow you down, and any thing lighter will help you go fast.

Renamazazo is an unknown quantity at this point
HX... 14lbs... though they're 14inch so... that kinda blows, I'd love to get me some bustom forged bbs wheels but I really don't have the 3k+ laying around, for that kinda money, it'd be better off turboing the car.

If your looking for some Superduper Extra light weight wheels, Try...

Keizer wheels
they are decent looking and the 15X7 are easily sub 10LBS. and you can get them with an aluminum or magniesium center.


Kodiak Motorsports also makes excelent Ultra Light weight wheels. also in the Sub 10lbs
