Hello guys,
Just a quick one - do you recall the weight of 17' factory mkiv rim (without a tire)? Can you recommend 18' aftermarket rims, which are lighter than stock 17'?
Thanks
Piotr

Hi,

stock TT rims are something like 24 and 26 lbs.....

Volks are about the same weight in 18's......the Gram lights are superlight....like 18 and 20 lbs for 18x9/18x10.

SSR's are reasobably light too....

yea the gram lights are one of the lightest rims i have seen for the supra. I am sure there are acouple more out there.

I think it depends on which gramlight you go with. A member on here got a set of gramlight 57F pros(two piece)and I believe they were 24/25 pounds. Volk makes some in the ~20lb range. I have a set of le37t's. I haven't weighed them, but they are right around 19/20lbs. Gramlights and Volks are both made by Rays wheels, and both are some light and great looking rims. I don't know of any 18s made by Rays that are heavier than the stockers.......unless youre talking some custom width. Anyway, either one would be lighter than stock. I think ssr makes some very light wheels as well.

I'm running Speedline Solid Magnesium wheels atm. 18x9 front 18x10 rear. Extremely light. I can pick up a wheel with no tire with only my pointer finger. They came with the car, hence their price is a mystery to me.

I just purchased a set of BC Forged racing wheels. The 18x10 weighs 22 lbs. Being a custom wheel, they took a couple of months to build. However, I took delivery today and will see about getting some pictures sometime soon.

Volk TE37. 19X8.5 (18~19lbs) and 19X9.5 (~19-20lbs only).

Trust me, you can tell the weight difference when driving with them.

Good luck!
