Deals on Gram Lights 57 Pro?
Anyone know a good vendor for these wheels? Would like to pick them up on the mainland before heading to HI.

Thanks in advance,
Dave

importhookup.com has some. imho, those 57pros look good, but
they're too heavy for what they are and price wise. 17lbs...
there are other wheels that are much better and same or
lower priced. best that i could find so far was $1500 for all 4
in 17x7.5.

Ah crud, I thought they were pretty light? I had changed my mind from the Superleggeras thinking the Grams were just as light. Since I want to do some 1/4 mile runs I might need something lighter. Hmm...

Appreciate the info!

Dave

17 lbs. each huh?? what are the te-37's because I've always thought those looked nice and were very light. But I'm going RH CP-035 on my wrx.

If you are worried about weight, check out the SSR Competitions. If I remember correctly the 17x7 1/2's weigh 13#.

Wow, the SSR Type-C (probably the competition) ARE only 12.7. Damn... Appreciate the tip. Ordering the STi so will wait awhile before I decided on replacing rims or not...

if Gram Lights 57 Pro isn't light enough, get the Gram Lights 57 Forged. They are at 12-13lbs each.

I can't find a good place to check out wheels besides TireRack. The CP-035's are my all-time favorite wheels (and I had them on my turbo civic) but they're so damn expensive. I'm looking into the SSR Competitions (same as Type-C?). How much are they? And the Gram Light Forged must cost 3 arms and a leg?
