Spoon is proably going to be the lightest set of wheels you find. Theyre also expensive.

Rotas, and Mugens arent too shabby either.

Look up www.tirerack.com all their light wheels have the "Lightweight" specification next to them as well as the weight. Anything under 12bls is good so keep that in mind. If you need cheap/lightweight wheels just get a set of OEM 14" HX wheels. You can get a set from someone with tires for under $250.

So, basically Spoon, Motegi and Rota are gonna generally be the brands offering the lightest rims? inlinefour.com seemed cool but they didn't have squat for my 02 Si Hatch .

I wish you could sort by weight on tirerack.com...

Anyone know of any sites where you can?

wheelweights.com

Enkei RPF1's are very light and readily available, same with Falken Hanabis, and Kosei K1s are pretty light too
