Default Lightweight 16" wheels

I'm in search of a lighter weight alternative to the Factory OEM wheel in 16".I know of the nearly unobtainable JDM wheels and the Spoon alternative really isn't very handsome,

Does anyone have an idea of a manufacturer who has what I'm looking for with the proper offsets and hub diameter?

Thanks

i will have my spoon's for sale soon, but if u want others, you can look into TE37, CE28N, Advan RG, all are extremly light weight wheels.

Volk CE28N's come in 16" at a scant 11 lbs. a wheel. The offsets are a litte better than most at +48 front and +49 rear; 16x7, 16x8. Cool wheels...Hope this helps. I am curious...why an alternative 16" wheel and not 17"?

I want to keep the SO2 tire and 16" seems to be the way to go.Besides the "flywheel"effect from larger wheels. I've researched a lot of threads and from what I see the stock SO2 is "the" tire for this car on the street.

Thanks for all your insight
