Help with wheels
I would appreciate help on this. I am looking for a super light weight wheel. I want to get a 19x8.5 or 19x9. I am open to suggestions but I really like the rj legends just wish they had a lip like the legend type2. I am also liking the rj dt3 forged. I am not saying that I only like these rims but like that style. any suggestions people?
also weight for the wheels would be great.
greatly appreciated!!!

Enkei rpf1 in 18" is one of the strongest lightest wheels on the market.
Most of the options currently on the market in a 19" wheel are well over 20lbs. The rpf1 in 18x8.5 is only 18lbs.

RJ just made a custom forged 19inch for one of the other members, something like 19 or 20lbs per corner.
But yea, if you want lightweight, expect to pay $$$ ($800-1k) per wheel.

Talk to ron -- I had an option of having a lip on mine and wanted a different look. When you going with a custom forged wheel the possibilities are endless. Yes my wheels are 19x9 and very light. Light and don't go hand in hand. To me it was worth it - to others they might say otherwise.

Wow. 19"x9" @ <21 lbs. This is really light.

A smaller, lighter and narrower 18" package will run faster at the track (rotational mass). There are also more options in 18" tires.
But then again, I doubt anyone is really going to track the 4G TL.

Your price range will greatly determine what your choices are. A good set of Volks will cost you around $3200-$3500. If you starting looking into HRE, 360 Forged, or anything high end you could be out up to $6000.
