5Zigen makes somewhat pricey but high quality lightweight rims, and ive seen plenty in black.

what colour is your car? and yes, I've also heard 5Zigen to do good quality light weight rims...just search for light weight rims, and then look for the colour you want...

GT-3's.. they do come in black

Tenzo mach-10

Work VS-TX

PIAA sport Mesh

Blitz Z1 if you can find this wheel in your size let alone black i think this is the best looking wheel out(in black)

ya the GT-3's are what i have but they only come in 16"s and if your car doesnt have low pro tire and isnt lowered it will look bad.. the tenzo's have a red strip on the outter edge of the wheel that would look good on titanium as well.. the sparco's are nice but there is nothing there...they are so thin

SSR!!! look at my av. its a 17' wheel that wieghs 14.2lbs. black. they have some other black wheels as well. you could also go up to 18 and still have a light weight wheel i believe the 18 was 17.1lbs??... could be wrong though. they are not cheap though... just mho.... (thats what i am saving up for right now... around 2k with tires...) (hand)

I've been looking into Kosei rims a lot lately. I think the Kosei K1 TS rims come in 17-18" and weigh only 14lbs. Priced at $200 a wheel on tirerack. I priced my own w/a set of Yokohamas & I think the total came out to a little over $1200 (looks like I'll be saving up for a while). Look reeeal nice.

I have a Ti hatch and have ordered up Rota Subzeros. They are black with a polished lip. As for weight, they aren't bad at 17.5 lbs a wheel.

My old car had Centerline RPMs that were really light and tough. I always worry about the weight rating on these light light rims.
