luke gtr Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 If you want light weight, you'll probably end up paying for it. But, do you NEED light weight? If you just want a nice set of wheels for the street, they would be fine. If you want to cut every .1 of a second of a lap, you NEED to purchase accordingly Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/389164-18inch-fleabay-alloys/#findComment-6210778 Share on other sites More sharing options...
