I have a 02 MCS with the 16" V's and the Dunlop runflats. What would be a good light weight wheel and tire combo? I am hoping to improve the ride and handling as well as excess unsprung weight. Thanks :smile:

16" SSR Competion wheels are about 11.5 lbs. Some Yokohama ES100 tires would work well; I like them :smile:
I have the 17" SSR Competions which weigh 13lbs, but I kind of wish I had gone for the 16" wheels; oh well.
A lot of people like the Kosei K1's for a light wheel but the bend a bit easier so if you live in a pothole zone you may not want them.
