Imagine my shock and surprise to find Gramlights going for $4k a set with rubber on The Ebays... can anyone think of some low cost, low weight rims that will look good on our cars?

My problem with RPF1's is that EVERYBODY has them.
And the superleggeras and ultraleggeras are nice, but I think their look and style is a bit dated. Now, define "affordable", because you can pick up a lower-end set of Fikse wheels for around $4,000. Those are definitely nice looking and lightweight, and 4K for a set of Fikse's is much better than 4K gram lights. -------------------- 1991 MR2 - T-tops - Crimson Red - Gen3 3SGTE - Lots of money
