lightweight performance wheels 20-21" ???

[ron@whooshmotorsports]

I have to admit, we are accustomed to light 15-17" wheels for our other ST's (and 4 lug)
I'm searching for some decently light wheels that won't take 12-20 weeks to deliver
Any thoughts ?

BC Forged is delivering in 5 weeks or less. These are my 22x10.5’s from them at 27.4lbs

they are really nice and the weight is impressive for the size
I'll check out that brand, hopefully they have 21 or 20" too.

thank you

I’m gonna grab your exhaust too...especially if you do mid pipes as well.

wheels ordered
went with 21x9.5 ET30
RT52 style

You might consider +35 on the offset to push them out a little more.

Not sure why I thought the ET30 would make them basically even with the fenders
I'll change that to ET35 is that's what you have which looks perfect

 

[UNBROKEN]

Mine is +30 but my wheels are 10.5 wide. And I wrote that wrong...should have been +25, not 35. That’ll push the wheels out almost 3/4”...the front will still be tucked by about 1/4”

thank you for the clarification
since the wheels I purchased are only 9.5" wide we changed it to +20 which should look pretty good

 

[UNBROKEN]

That will be dead flush.

I'm going with Bora spacers front and rear to push them out a bit since i also went with 9.5" .

1/4" up front and 1/2" in the rear should get the job done .

Enkei TSR-X - 20x9.5 are 23.6 lbs. Gotta be the lightest wheel you can get for a decent price and good build quality.

what is the stock wheels weigh?

what is the stock wheels weigh?

One of my 21” wheels and tires came in at 78.8lbs.
My 22’s were 63.3 mounted and balanced.

Wow... That's a BIG weight savings... 60 lbs over 4 wheels. I don't really understand why factory wheels weigh so much... only reason I can think of is cost savings. But I do not know what goes into wheel/tire development from and OEM perspective

at +35 what kind of spacer will i need to flush the wheels up a bit..thinking 1/4" on the rear should do it? are all spacers made equal or is there a brand to get.? (wheels are 10.5/22 w/305/35s)

I would say Bora spacers would work fine.....at least that is what i am going to use .
