The Lightest 17" wheels? - Honda Prelude Forum

97 grn ss · 09-29-2001, 07:39 PM

I am thinking of getting new wheels for my lude and I was wondering what the lightest wheels in a 17" are and what they weigh? Personally I think 17 is the ideal size as long as they are light in weight.

Volk TE-37s, Racing Hart CP-035s, SSR Integrals and GT-1, Kosei K-1 (if they come in 17s) and Racing Senekas, RH Evo CP-35s, Rota Subzero. Those are the ones I can think of on top of my head.

If it's the black ones, I thought the largest they go to is 16s, in 4-lug?

Like I said, 16" Spoons to autocross in, my current RH Evo CPs for the street

.

Those Regamasters are in the Classifieds Section...how much do they weigh?

I think those Sparco Viper-R's are very light as well...
nice, light, expensive wheel.

Oh yea I'm having a group buy on Regamaster wheels.

Forged Stern Aguzze S07-R 17x7.5" +47mm offset = 13.8lbs

The only 17" wheels that I know of that are lighter than these are the SSR Competitions and the Racing Hart CP-035s...

RPerro · 09-30-2001, 08:22 PM

OZ Superleggera 17x7 = 15.4 lbs.

I would say the rota subzero: 17x7.5, + 45mm , 16.8lbs & strong. (Yeah I know it's not one of those high-end companies like Volk/Sparco/Spoon etc but I think it does the job well)
