[B][COLOR="DarkOrchid"]rule of thumb: competition/racing wheels dont really have great looks but it is superlight n superstrong, most competition wheels are also made by forging technique, it is also damn expensive even for 2nd hand item. ex of forged wheels: te37, ce28, se37, type-c, type-f, cp035, regamaster, etc...[/COLOR] The weight also varies even if u have the same size depending on [COLOR="red"]pcd[/COLOR] n [COLOR="red"]width[/COLOR] n [COLOR="red"]offset[/COLOR] n [COLOR="red"]no of holes [/COLOR]n [COLOR="red"]finishing type[/COLOR] n also [COLOR="red"]wheel design [/COLOR]itself[/B] [U]Offset difference:[/U] ssr type-c with 15j x 7j x [B]off42[/B] spec [COLOR="Red"]will be lighter [/COLOR]than ssr type-c with 15j x 7j x [B]off30[/B] spec..... [U]Width difference: [/U] CE28 with 15j x [B]6.5j[/B] x off42 [COLOR="red"]will be lighter[/COLOR] than CE28 with spec 15j x [B]7j[/B] x off42..... [U]PCD difference: [/U] regamaster with spec 15j x 6.5j x off45 x [B]pcd 100 [/B]will [COLOR="red"]differ in weight [/COLOR]if compared to regamaster with spec 15j x 6.5j x off45 x [B]pcd 114 [/B], although not by much, range of 50grams to 150 grams per wheel... [U]Finishing difference:[/U] te37 with special white coat(like the time attack edition) or flat graphite powdercoat (like the Seibon edition) [B]will be heavier [/B]than the normal te37 with bronze colour even though they are the same size n spec, range of 50grams to 150 grams too per wheel...
