Thinking about changing my wheels from the factory 19s to either 17s or 18s to lose some weight on the car but wanna stay under a decent budget(like $150 a wheel tops, maybe a little more). So was wondering if anybody had any good brands or specific wheel models to look at?

Light weight for me means under 25 pounds, although anything like 22 and below would be awesome! Since the stock 19s now weigh like 30-35 lbs I think

So far I've looked at wheels from motegi, moda, xxr, sparco, and enkei

light weight and inexpensive are generally not compatible.

IIRC the least pricey was a Enkei wheel.

did you search? as this topic has been tackled previously

Enkei is about your best bet. A hair above $300 a wheel for 18x9.5 . After that, the sky is the limit honestly.

So there's no other wheels under 25 pounds a wheel for 17s or 18s other than the ones I found on tire rack in my budget?

Yeah I searched but most I found were looking for sub 18 pound wheels and budget of a few grand

I'm not looking for that light of weight, nor spending that much
