I was looking at different wheels and found this one by Racing Hart (CP-035).

http://www.dazzmotorsports.com/wheel.asp?m...id=20&mdlid=113

It only weights about 7lbs and comes in sizes 17 x 7 thru 9s and 18 x 7.5 thru 10s. The wheel is made in japan so they should have the right offsets but I am calling a friend of mine to see if it will fit the S2000. If you are intrested in finding out more about this wheel post a reply, I can get a group buy on these wheels with tires if you want.

It's got a nice BBS classic kind of thing going, but are you sure they are 7 lbs? Sounds like a lawnmower wheel weight to me...lol. Are they 6" X 1"...hehe. Juz' checkin'.

I saw it dude, but I'm not believin' it. Maybe it's some sort of composite compound, and the weight quoted is the 15" variety...could be, I have heard of such wheels...for about $3,000 bones each.

7lbs for 15x6.5

You want light? Try 16.75lbs for 18x9.5 Volk Racing SE-37K. Now that is light!

At 7 lbs these things just might float.
