Which rims are these!!??
Im really wanting a light weight 3 piece racing wheel... now i think in black with a polished lip. Racing Harts are nice, but all the rims are so expensive! Im enjoying the pictures of these, so i can get a good idea of what im wanting.
no offense but you want 3-piece lightweight wheels and you think Racing Hart's are expensive? I think you need to give your wish list a bit of a reality check.
If you want dark rims with a polished lip, go with some Volk LE37Ts. They are extremely light but strong and they come in gunmetal with polished lips. They are also reasonably priced, especially from Rishie (ARD T2).
Don't get the Blitzes, they are heavy, even if they do look pretty nice.

Well if you have some $$$ to blow get something in the Volk LE line. They are not 3 piece wheels, but they are forged racing wheels and are very light for their size. I personally have the LE37K on my silver FD, polished silver lip w/gunmetal centers.. I think they look sick but that is my opinion.
My rear 18X9.5 weighs in a hair under 17lbs I believe.

if you want NICE and super LIGHT wheels, then go with the enkei f1's.
i raced on a circuit a in july where there was this BONE STOCK rz rx7 and all he had was these wheels in 17" and a coilover setup and he was THE fastest car that day!! a few r32 gtr's were present, two more fd's(one with a single turbo greddy setup), a few s15's, etc etc. i mean he had NO boost controller, no aftermarket muffler, no NOTHING!! stock air cleaner too!! that's what he believes in. DRIVING SKILLS!! he had the previous track record driving his soarer(all stock as well). and believe me, NO ONE is an amatuer except me. ask me if you want to hear more. one thing i forgot to mention is that he has s-tires but that's goes without saying.

I'm in the same boat. I'm pricing rims now. I was going to get something "affordable", but then I thought about it and decided not to half-*** it. If I'm going to get rims, I'm going to get what I like.

i didn't know y'all talkin about my car.. lol
Blitz rims weight around 22-23 lbs w/o tires..
If you want light rims i would go with Volks..
This guy in nopi had 19 inch blitz rims on his FD..VERY NICE.. that guy was cool as hell too.
What size you want? most 18inch rims are around 18-25 lbs each. Stock rims with powder coating looks nice as hell too.. do some search.

That works...

Are there other widths on those? At least from the picture you attached (which has been cut a little), it list only going to 8.5", and that is only at 19's. Yuck...
