I just changed to lighter rims for my car yesterday.

Here is some info I got:

Civic Fd 17" Enkei stock rims are 9kg each
Waja CPS and 20yr 15" rims are almost 9kg each

Lenso Samurai SC-01 15" is 7kg each
Volk Racing TE37 15" taiwan replica is around 6kg each
Grams Light 15" replica around 6kg each
SSR Type C replica 15" taiwan is 5kg each

Ori Volk Racing 15" TE37 or CE28 is 4kg each but they cost around 4.5k a set
Ori SSR Type C 15" is only 3.9kg each.

Paid RM800 for the SSR Type C replica and RM60 for the lock nuts. Heptagon nuts. Makes it a lil bit harder for them to open all 16 of them. Got them changed in Penang island. Comes with free metal valves, balancing and alignment.

15x6.5JJ ET40.

im prefer lenso .. it's really light

lenso is not light...even my SSR Type C replica is lighter than Lenso Samurai range. I'm on 15" and its only 5kg. Lenso samurai is 6.5kg each even for 15"

The lightest rim design irregardless the design is:

Volk Racing CE28 = 3.9kg
SSR Type C =3.9kg
Desmond Regamaster Evo = 3.9kg

haha..no problem bro..
thanx for ur quick answer!~
is it 3.85kg?waa..very lightweight..planning to get it soon!~
but seriously hard to find te37 pcd100..normally got for pcd 114.5..

PCD100 is always easier to find...114.5 is the one harder as most jap cars use PCD100. a lot of the lighter rims are all on PCD 100.

TE37 is heavier than CE28. The correct weight is around 4kg. Do a google search on the rim weight. You'll be surprised. I did all my research before getting rims.

2.6k for 2nd rims is acceptable but need to check if its repaired or bent.
