Which rims are lighter?

[PourkyM3]

iForged 18x8.5 Flux (6 spoke)
or
HRE 18x18.5 546 (6 Spoke)


Also would anybody know the actual weights of these rims?

[toopercentmlk]

even if the HREs were lighter.. dont get them. they are a show rim, i see too amny cracked HREs at my shop, they crack just like theyre some cheap replica. tho, they are pretty light, so id say the HREs are lighter

[shim]

yup, HRE's are definitely for the bling factor & they are mad heavy

[PourkyM3]

Well I already own a set of 18" HRE 546s and might be purchasing some 18' iForged Flux rims instead. Just wanted to know which one is lighter and which to use.

According to http://www.wheelweights.net/ the HRE's weigh 20 lbs. The link to the Flux on the iforged site isn't working but the Sprints look pretty similar. 19x8.5's weigh 23 lbs so the 18x8.5 Fluxes should be in the same neighborhood as the HRE's.

[PourkyM3]

Well I guess it'll have to come down to some votes, anybody?

HRE 546 or IForged Flux

[shim]

which is the more blingin IMO? HRE

they both suck...they're both heavy bling wheels that are not nearly worth their price...in my opionion, neither are good wheels...in fact they'd have to pay me to use 'em :D

get a real wheel like Forgeline, Fikse, BBS, Kinesis, or CCW...

I don't mind getting those rims, but there aren't any ones in the classifieds which interested me. If I get Fiskes I want the FM10s and if I were to get BBS would like either the LMs or RS-GTs. I'll have to look into the Kinesis, CCW, and Forgeline rims. Do they have a website?

www.kinesis.com, www.forgeline.com, www.ccwheel.com

I'm pretty sure those are the sites...you can always google it if it doesn't come up. Mark at Forgeline and John at CCW are both friends of mine. Both are great people to deal with and build excellent quality wheels.

do the right thing, get a quality set of wheels and giterdone right the first time :)

also very good wheels...I like SSR Comps, Volks are excellent also but require a long lead time...

werd. the 17" ssr comps weigh around 15.3 lbs & with anthracite centers & polished lip they look clean! volks are very nice, but very very pricey. my friend has a set of LE-37t's that cost him around $4k b/c of custom order

easiest way to find out about the weights, is check on the companies websites, if it doens't show it there. Email them, in a day or two they should have you a response with the exact weight of the particular size you want.
