According to tirerack, yours is 19 lbs and SA70 is 19.4 lbs and was forged too. Its only 0.4 x 4 = 1.6 pounds heavier than yours.

DId you have the rays nuts as well? It was light as feather!

See I got it lighter than u again.

Beers!

You're looking at 18x9s and even so the 18x9 TC005s are 18.5 pounds. I have 18x8s. Sadly tirerack no longer stocks the 18x8 TC005s as I got the last set they had, but if you really want to be **** you can go ask Connor and he'll tell you they're 17.5 pounds. SA70s are light pressure cast (check tirerack or wheelspecs) while TC005s are forged. Tirerack says light pressure cast for the TC005s too, but all other sources say the TC005s are forged. The TC line of WedsSport is forged, while the SA line is cast, except for the SA90 Forged line. I have Muteki lugs; I couldn't justify Rays lugs and the Muteki ones came free from tirerack.

I never knew this was a competition to see who has the lighter wheels. If that were the case, Taka would win for the WedsSports. As it is, I felt the TC005s (at $325 per wheel) were a good combination of strength, lightness, and value which is why I got them. I didn't want to get the 18x9.5 Enkei RP-F1s since my car is stock rideheight and I don't have plans to change out the suspension anytime soon.

Dear Sir,

Thank you for your inquiry.

The SA70 wheels are Spun-Rim.

Taka, I still got too much gap after having the S-Tech for 2 years!

I am planning on TEIN Basic. But the max drop is 1.6 in front and 1.0 at rear! WTF? Or is it 2.4 in front 1.4 at rear according to the following website?

http://www.tein.com/badamp.html

Please let me know?

drop 20mm front and 15mm rear as suggest by FEED.

Any more than that will wreck the ride.

I don't think it's a hugely popular aftermarket brand. It doesn't help that the line is quite limited.
