        i have Enkei RPF1s on my car. i'll try and get some pics, i don't know how to post em though.

        i'm thinking about switching the hubs and brakes to the later Proteges and putting the 17s on my car, the only problem is i have to get rid of the 4x100 and lose the RPF1s 9lbs weight.

          ssr competitons and spoon sw388's are both light wright, they are expensive though, the spoon rims look like they are flat black and the ssr's are pretty but they are both pretty costly.

          also look at advan's or volk

            SSR comps are very light (9.3lbs) for 15x7

            Too bad they're ass-expensive

                    I have the 12.3 lbs 7 spoke wheel and noticed a big difference from the stock steelies- even with the yokahama A520's which are fairly heavy tires.

                      son of a bitch !!! i just found the link to miata wheels today. I've always thought that the 7 spoke 90-93 rims weigh 8-9lbs. It weighed 12.3 just like kansei said. I was looking at the wrong pic when i got this rims. I was looking at the bbs LE 8.5lbs. DAMN!
                      Now im gonna end up selling this **** till i get that bbs...

                          I know its Honda, but the 1997 or 1998 Honda Del Sol factory alloy rims are very light, don't know the numbers, but have lifted them and are very light. Will fit any 323, Protege, GT...

                          The Rota line are kind of light, one thing is the Rota factory paint tend to peel and crack after time. Friends sandblast them and repaint them again. Light rims indeed.

                            yeah, i know what you mean about the honda rims. the del sol rims are the 5 spoke, and are almost exactly like the 5 spoke gsr rims which i have on my car. they are hella light and look good too. they look almost like the 99-00 (something like that) protege 5 spoke rims.

                              hate to break the ice here guys but the 5 spoke gsr rims weigh atleast 16lbs a piece and the del sol atleast 14 lbs.

                              the lightest wheels honda have is the 11lbs hx 14". That is y every honda fanatic have one in their garage for racing.
