Default Wheels?

Are there any wheels that are either 17" or 18" that look like the Black Flik Justice but weigh less? Cause I can't seem to fnd any.

Neuspeed makes wheels that look very much like the justice, and are lightweight forged models... 600~ wheel though -- and I'm not sure they come in black. Would be worth emailing them though! Sometimes wheel companies can sell you unfinished wheels... then you can have them finished how you want (ie: black). Since they sell them unfinished, at a reduced cost... it works out in the end.

Hmmm the neuspeeds are 19" and weigh 20 lbs. guess they arent what you're looking for.
neuspeed wheels

They are black, though!

Yeah i'm really just looking for a black wheel with a black lip that doesn't weigh that much. And isn't an arm and a leg. Something under 450 a wheel. Any ideas?

Well, I purchased a used set of Volks for my RX-7 and had them powder coated in gloss black (to match the car). If you picked up some used HRE's or another multi-piece wheel you might be able to pull them apart and have the spokes powdercoated and the lip polished. Good luck either way.

multipiece wheels under 450 a wheel is tricky business... definately would have to buy used. Not a giant deal if your gonna have them re-done... but still. I like those neuspeeds though, too bad they are so pricey!

No HRE. HRE=show>go. Your best bet is eBay, my friend. Maybe someone redrilled some RHs or something. I can't even think of a wheel that looks like a Justice but doesn't weigh more than a seventh-grader.

Ooohh! OZ Superleggeras are multispoke, 17x8, weigh like 17 lbs or less, and aren't that pricy (250 a wheel?) Only thing is you'd have to get them powdercoated black, but if you did you'd still be well within your $450 budget.
