I've been looking at these...about $700 for the set of 17s(without tires...) brand is R-1 style Riko-5



I want these^^ the black ones....here's a clearer pic of 'em(in bronze)




I woud like to know how much they weigh...doesnt look like much...

so..what do you guys think?

the black one's are sick...I'd go wit them

Spokes are too thin imo. You'd need some nice big brakes to fill in the gap (not rusty stock calipers/rotors).

man.. those are nice.. never seen those before.. good choice..

vegasdsmr just got a set of those, said they weigh 11lbs ea w/o the tire.

Those rims would force me to do the GSX, 4 wheel disc brake upgrade I been planning for a while..I'll at least paint my calipers and get some slotted rotors while I'm at it, until I can afford better ones...

yea i want those rims... of course after the big brake kit so don't get them, they are mine

i dont like em too much but its your car.

BTW, found those wheels for only $376 here:

I hightly doubt they only weight 11 lbs as Volk racing wheels weight around that and cost nearly 3k.

confused...clarify this for me??...

if you were telling me to get 'em AFTER big brakes...that's not really possible...the rims I have, have an odd spoke shape, and would rub the caliper...not to mention I'll probably be selling them to buy the new ones...

as far as the weight...it's EXCELLENT if they are that light....if not, i'm sure they're lighter than most...that's apparent in the design...

Not bad imo...sparco knock-offs if i'm not mistaken

not exactly...the R-1s have thinner spokes, and much smaller center section...
