ok so i'm still kinda looking at the http://www.streetdreams.org/display.php?s=Enkei&r=RSV&fin=Bronze rims but i would like to get some opinions on other rims here is my criteria, gold/bronze, 17 inch 7 or 7.5 i would like magnesium (lightweight) but others will be considered and i kind of like the look of the enkei RSV rims so that is the basic stlye i like if u see any post 'em... oh and i would like to keep the Rim/tire combo under $1000.00, rims about 500-600 and 500-400 on tires maybe more like 6-700 or 4-300

magnesium wheels are a tad bit out of your price range, but check out Keiser Wheels for an idea.

they'll tell you to call this guy vick at a discount tire shop in cali. they've got a lot of nice wheels and some tire/wheel combos too. that's where i bought mine from.

might wanna also check out www.hopupracing.com (http://www.hopupracing.com/).

btw, correct me if i'm wrong but aren't magnesium wheels expensive? even forged wheels are expensive....

but let's see, 5zigen fn01r-c's are lightweight and affordable. most rota's are lightweight and reasonable as well. some konig's are lightweight. i tried to only find wheels that were of a 5-spoke design. here's what i came up with.

I have dark gray RSVs love them. I almost got them in bronze, too. I chose them because I have always like Work wheels and these looked very similar.
