For benchmark purposes, what are some of the lightest 18 inch and 19 inch wheels? I've been looking at Blitz wheels.

What do the lightest wheels weight?

I've been looking and it seems like most setups are about 56 lbs with tire and wheel


Also, if anyone has any, please reply with pictures of GS's with 18's. Trying to figure out if it looks too small and how low it will need to go.
coils or spring/shocks

thanks everyone.

IMO, if you want light, just get one peice SSR's. I've heard they're light.

I have 3 PC 18"s on my car which is dropped by eibachs around 1.25 inch. (see my gallery or profile) and they look small. 19's will look better but I like mine cuz the ride is better

imo 18''s way too small for a GS. 19 barely does it. 20's the way to go.. = )

i agree, 20's look perfect on a GS,

My personal choices, I'll probably end up with one of the following:

The Fikse FM/10 runs 20lb & change for 18x8.5. [3 piece]
<The Fikse FM/5 is at least a pound lighter.>
The Volk Racking LE37K runs a bit over 17lb for 18x8.5.

jbbnet,

For prices on SSR rims PM GS4WILL, he can definitely help you out on that............

Wheel Kinetics

17-18 lbs for most Volk 18s

Blitz 18" 03s.. http://www.wheelkinetics.com/blitz/NA_Products_Type03R

Here's a picture of Volk Challenge 18s on my GS, stock suspension.

Yes, the GS needs 19's or 20's...20's are perfect on the GS!

On the Fikses, don't forget to add the weight of the spacers- these will be required if you have big brakes, as Fikse essentially only makes a low-disk center forging.
