Lightest Rims for Least Money?

Hey everyone I was wondering what are some affordable light weight wheels (under $600). I had Konig Heliums on my del Sol and I was looking for something in that price range for the Prelude. I want to stick with factory size. So what's the best bang (weight) for the buck? Rota?

Konig rims are pretty light. Here is the site to all of their lightweight wheels: KÖNIG_Passenger_Wheels

DiscountTireDirect.com usually has a good selection of Konig wheels and most of them are lightweight and decently priced, I'd check out the site for what you like and see what DiscountTireDirect has.

There ya go. Not a bad price and those are pretty light. I think the Slipstreams are a little overplayed but if you like them I'd go for it

Actually I don't like them, but I'm performance over looks. Any color suggestions for a chromabase painted car? It's like silver, blue and purple blended together.

those are fine, but personally... id totally get a set of rpf1's or pf01's. Just save up the extra 400 and get wheels you can really count on.
