lightweight performance wheels.. WHICH DO I GET? - Toyota Yaris Forums

vitzbitz69 · 03-03-2014, 02:20 PM

Hey guys, just wondering what kind of wheels I should think about purchasing.. I want light wheels that will help with performance but also fit nice in my wheel well. Any suggestions? I have a 2010 white 3 door yarii stock.

Enkei RPF1 or any decent forged wheel. SSR for example.

What size do you want, 15" or 16" or 17"?

vitzbitz69 · 03-03-2014, 03:12 PM

I'm looking more of a 15" wheel

This... for lightweight go rpf1, i dont think anything is lighter for under $1000 and they come in 4x100 and decent options for offset so you can even go a little more aggressive width if you want

Xxrs are just as light. But half the price. Not the same quality I guess, but im really happy with my 002s

thebarber · 03-03-2014, 08:35 PM

Rpf1's

Or kosei k1-ts

Klink10 · 03-04-2014, 06:10 AM

RPF1's for sure.

XXR 002s are around 15-16 lbs without tires rpf1s are under 10 lbs for the same 15x7 size.

cali yaris · 03-04-2014, 10:57 AM

The XXR's are definitely not just as light.

Thirty-Nine · 03-04-2014, 02:32 PM

I have 15x6.5 Konig Daylites and they weigh 12 lbs. each.

hairdresserscar · 03-04-2014, 03:34 PM

I done screwed up. Searched the other ones and got wrong info. Sorry guys!

vitzbitz69 · 03-04-2014, 10:17 PM

I was actually looking at some slipstreams too.

not sure how light they are, I know the Spoon wheels that Rota copied are super lightweight racing wheels but they are not super light on the wallet.

cali yaris · 03-05-2014, 09:16 AM

Back to the top of the topic. OP, what is your budget for wheels and tires?

vitzbitz69 · 03-05-2014, 10:15 AM

500 is my budget I don't in replicas

Spoon wheels are Regamaster Evo's and made in Russia, they have been known to crack though so a lot of money to spend on wheels which arnt known to like daily driving

Other light wheels are Racing Hart CP-035

You wont get in to the 9lb RPF1 with that budget, unless you can find them used. You could get the 11lb Kosei K1 TS from the Tire Rack, $536 a set.
