It's ok. A TME wheel weighs 21 lbs and it's 17 x 7.5.

Light for 17 x 7 would be 15 lbs like the Japanese wheels.

Thanks Claudius. I just read them again though they're 17.7.5 and Chrome but I think I got the weight from somewhere else.

They're not really chrome per se, but plated...real chrome would be ghastly expensive and heavy.

Those are some crazy wheels Enkei has...the Inazuma, Shogun, and Fubuki are nice...but I still like the simple race look of the K1's.
