I am thinking about going with an 18" rim.........How lite is lite & what is considered heavy? Thanks!

 

I would consider anything under 20 pounds as "light" for an 18" wheel. The SSR Comp I believe weighs in at about 14 pounds, not aware of an 18" any reasonably priced 18" lighter. Be sure to take into account the tire weight too, as that's even more important in terms of rotational inertia. :smile:

Cheers,
Ryan

 

Light 18" rims tend to run more than $300 per rim.
Centerline has the dominator series in 18x7" 4x100 bolt pattern +42 offset
about 16 lbs per rim roughly.
