    13 lbs. Heavier than most of what I'm considering.

    I've checked out a few: Jongbloed is $$$ and no lighter than 12.5lbs, Panasports, not going there for this car based on look. Revolutions were heavy. SSRs and the others I must check.

    Rota slipstream - apparently 12 pounds 15 x 7 $150 each for 4.

    Doesn't look like a 15 x 7 zero offset is availble in 5 x 114 though

    Those have a very bad reputation for breaking (no offense Bob).

    A couple months ago, I looked into the Rota 15x7. They did not have the +35 offset in the 5x114.3mm anywhere in stock. Only the +40 so I'd have to run spacers. I decided to get the Team Dynamics +35 for just about $5-$10 more per wheel, which were in stock.
