I recently sold my black Enkei RPF1's because I wanted to go with a different look.

What wheels are just as light with a +45mm offset?

Volk RE30 lighetest, CE-28, Wedsport TC105N

they should but not sure about the offset.

ultralegarras? Not as light but close

^I thought those only came in the 18X8's

The RE30's would be great but I hate the 4month wait time.

^And the price!

you wanted the lightest. EDIT: actually BBS RE in mag are the lightest.

the Volk TE-37 Mags are like 13lbs a piece.

On tirerack the BBS REs are 20.3lbs there are a ton of wheels lighter than that
EDIT-forgot about the Mag....

The mag ones are between 14-15lbs.

Got any pics on rx8s just for kicks? BTW what about the ings+1 wheels that fluidmotorsports has? Maybe not the lightest but still decent, no?

te-37 mags in 18x9.5 are $1700 each.

not for the faint of heart.

also, the 18x10 is 14lbs. can you imagine what 17x8.5 is? i bet thats dropping 10lbs per corner....

Have you guys seen the weds full carbon one

don't think you'll get much lighter. ;) wrong size tho

For the price the Volk RE30's are the best choice IMO.

Who should I order these from? I want to make sure that I don't loose $4k to a non reputable shop.

I ordered my volk te-37's from Japanparts and had them in 18 days and it was a very good experience since I hate waiting for parts.

ce28's are about 16 pounds each

I can't find anything on their website.

They don't even list Volk as a parts manufacturer!

Thats because the wheels are all Rays, they don't have the RE30 listed but they can probably get it you just have to ask.

Send a PM to japanparts and I'm sure he can hook you up. BTW love the RE30s! What color and size you going with?

Def post some pics of it when you get em..Link on this thread too so I don't miss it. :P

Yeah, for these being out for around two years now, I still have yet to see any GT cars or anything for that matter race with these. I f I start to see serious race teams trust in a extremely brittle material like carbon then I may consider them....

That's because these are made by RAYS Wheels; VOLK is not ( and has never been ) a manufacturer

*Pages* of VOLKS ( RAYS ) Wheels link above; we can quote "how much and how soon" for any of these Wheels

Best!

I still don't see the RE30's listed.

Can you quote me a price/time frame for four 18x9.5 +42 in gunmetal?

i just read those wheels are like 10k :uhh:

If i'm not wrong.... it's only 2.5 kg for the 18x8
weds sport full carbon...

Tirerack sells a TRMotorsports MT1 18x9.5 +45 that is 19 pounds for $315. I'm not sure if the bore diameter is a RX-8 fitment though as they don't show it for the RX-8, but the bolt pattern is correct. It looks like that wheel might have more brake clearance than the RP-F1, which would allow someone to run a BBK that isn't the special Enkei offset Racing Brake.

What do you guys think about the ings+1 TS06 wheels?

The 18x9.5 are 18.4lb each.

Lol I said that in my first post and no one said anything. :x

I missed that because you only said Ings+ without the model#. :)

Very good choice BTW. They are much cheaper than RE30's and they are really growing on me.

They look like hawt business. The look reminds me of a Wangan runner (if anyone knows that reference).. But it looks nice. Any pics of this on an RX8 besides above?

I wish! :banghead:

I guess it's a good thing. If I do get them I will be unique. :lol:

The ings is baller, not the lightest of wheels but is unique and looks fresh!@

lol That's true. But $700 a pop? I'd rather pay $500 for some Advan's. I'm still on the fence with the wheels I want...

Imput you better not be ignoring my Recaro question in that other thread. :P Pwnz0r you :D
