i was wondering where a good place to get a lightweight set of wheels would be the 2 i was thinking about were Volk TE37 and Racing Hart CP-035R since they were the lightest weight 15" that i could find can anyone help me locate a place online to get these from and also does anyone know if they fit a 95 Del Sol SI

Get ROTA's from AllJDM. Jason over there will hook you up if you're from hondaswap ($450 shipped!).
Plus ROTA's have pretty much imitation wheels from RH and Volks. And they are super light. Edit: The Rota Grid's are the TE37 cop I think... and the.. Sub Zero's are the CP-035 cop.

have you ever looked at 16 inch Volk TE37's? Pissedoffsol is selling a set right now. Other than that, talk to the guy on here named ALLJDM, he normally can get you some good deals. He runs ALLJDM.com (his website only has like 5% of what he actually sells so just talk to him) his AIM name is also alljdm
hoped that helped

rotas are extremly light for the cost. True the other ones will be a little bit lighter but they also cost 1500 more.

Rota Circuit 8 15 x 6.5 Cast 11.5 Rota Circuit 8 16 x 7 Cast 15.5 Rota Competition 15 x 6.5 Cast 16.8 Rota Competition 16 x 7 Cast 19.6 Rota Formel 16 x 7 Cast 17 Rota Grid Racing 15 x 6.5 Cast 14.5 Rota Grid Racing 16 x 7 Cast 16 Rota Manta 15 x 6.5 Cast 16.5 Rota Manta 16 x 7 Cast 17.6 Rota MSR 15 x 6.5 Cast 16.9 Rota MSR 16 x 7 Cast 17.2 Rota N1R 16 x 7 Cast 17.7 Rota Retro 15 x 6.5 Cast 14 Rota Slipstream 15 x 6.5 Cast 11.9 Rota Slipstream 16 x 7 Cast 13.5 Rota Stage 5 15 x 6.5 Cast 17.6 Rota Stage 5 16 x 7 Cast 20.1 Rota Subzero 15 x 6.5 Cast 12.9 Rota Subzero 16 x 7 Cast 14.5 Rota Subzero 17 x 7 Cast 16.5 Rota Subzero 17 x 7.5 Cast 16.9 Rota Tarmac 17 x 7 Cast 19 Rota Tuner 16 x 7 Cast 18 Rota Velo 15 x 6.5 Cast 16.8 Rota Velo 16 x 7 Cast 19. one that i know that were missing is the new Group N, (knock off of mugens)

about how much do the 14 inch wheels that came stock on the 95 del sol si weigh i want to lose at least 8lbs a wheel and i thought that they were around 18 so i might have to spend the 2000 to get the ones i want because i want to get a very very low time with my del sol when i add the turbo so the lighter the better but at 450 a set shipped i might go with those for now

No one can sell ROTA's for cheaper. They set a minimum selling price and if a seller goes below it, I believe ROTA pulls their contract Also, ALLJDM is including free shipping. Find a better deal than that.

#1 I've never heard anyone on this board complain about thier ROTA's and a lot of people have them. #2 They are cheap. $450 for 4 lightweight wheels with shipping, thats cheap. Show me another site where you can get them for cheaper. #3 Jason at ALLJdm has been a big part of this site and has a huge stock of merchandise. He posts on these boards and is easy to get ahold of. I've never heard one complaint about his shop and I've heard of quite a few people ordering from there from this site for that reason. Show me some proof of what your saying or stop trolling. ![]()

ive posted before about a site/shop selling rotas for $300-$350. nobody bothered to check out the site.
and rotas are NOT high quality. i swear....some of the peeps on this site are a bunch of circle jerkers. most of you are cool, but the rest of you LOVE to have the same opinion of everyone else. go ahead and buy from alljdm..i never said dont. im only stating that i for one will not, and i will never own rotas again. |

for someone on a budget looking for a relativly light wheel of decent quality Rota is a good choice
are they top quality.... no are they the lightest rims in the fucking world.... no they are however one of the best rims for the price you pay personally i will not be buying them ... but i also plan to do serious road course competition with my car so the 4lbs less that the CP035's weigh makes the $300 per rim price i have to pay for them worth it to me.... if i was not planning to do any serious competing with my car, or i was only planing to autoX with it would i get the CP035's .... hell no... id be getting a set of Rota's with some Azenis or Kuhmo's on them.... there is no point in dumping 1200 on rims and another 800+ on tires that are just going to get beaten up on an autoX track or the street.... i have seen plenty of people use rotas and i have not seen any of them crack or chip without some serious abuse... thats more than i can say for a lot of other tims that cost 2x as much

If you are an admin, just look at the IP #, and the one from SOHCvtec, or that D15B7 fag as well. Yeah, he is a little cunt, just like they were.
