Cause, it is lightest in 18" I saw that I can waste some money without feeling bad MSRP is $250/each. It could be also not the right one I may need 18x8 or 18.8.5 so I can have 235/40/18?

Any ideas ?

I would be very carefull if you do get those rims. When I was getting rims for my Legend it was eather 18" Tantrums or 18" Toxxins, the problem with the toxxins is that they bend REALLY easy from what I heard, so I went with the tantrums. If your looking for a light wheel to help with speed, get a 17" wheel, I beleive konig also make a hella light 17" then you have some rubber to protect the rim too.

Side note.... Do you know of anyone who has tantrums on a CL, When I got them for my legend I think I was one of the first, but now every ones got them.

You maybe just right, good advice.

I may go with this setup:

17x8, 235/45/17, I may have seen this combo here somewher.

Thanks.

Nashua,

You are correct. EricL and Technique have the SSR Competition 17 x 8 with 235/45/17. The rims are hella light @ 14 lbs! Not Bad!

If your looking for light wheels I would go with the Konig Sub Zero, I think they are cheep too, and they look pretty much like race wheels. I am thinking of getting a set of them with some cheep slicks for the track 17x7.5 @ 16.9lbs and discount tires has them listed at $160 a piece! Thats $640 for all 4. Add a set of tires you dont care if you burn up on the stip like Kumho's and youve got a tight racing setup for under a grand. I plan on getting the 235/40 17 tires
lots of traction

I have accually had really good luck with konig, I wouldnt get a low low prof. tire though with them. My 18" Tantrums have been to hell and back and havent had any problems. I think if I do go with 20s or 19s when I get my cl I will deffinatly get a better wheel though, The wheel I really want is made buy Hart, I forget the name of it though.

Racing Hart has some really nice wheels. I really want some C5s even though i have seen a lot of people with them (mostly accords).
