So I need a spare set of wheels for the Silverstone and I'm looking at going 16" with 45 profiles. What I need to know is which wheels are lighter than the 17" RS Wheels and that look the nuts! I'm thinking that I may as well take the opportunity to reduce the rolling weight of the wheels while I'm on so as light as possible. Pictures or suggestions welcome - I'd like to see what you all suggest and see what they look like on the car if poss.
Wheels with light weight that look good??

Probably any wheels will be lighter :lol:
Oz ultralegara would be my first thought. Look the dogs danglies, light and available in decent sizes and offsets

I'm seriously thinking about Braid Maxlight's in 15". Custom made, so almost every offset can be done. They are rally wheels, so very strong and at 6,4 kg pretty light.

waiteys wheels are bloody well light, and look the absolute dogs you know what's although they are white! 450 i think he's wanting with tyres? that's quite fair, then again he's also looking for some RS wheels to swap for them
rota alloys are japanese so that means good built quality. it seems rotas / speedlines / buddyclubs look the dogs, again .. you know what's on a twingo!

I had Rota GT3 on my MR2 Roadster, nice wheel but suffered with corrosion on the polished lip, been looking at Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2 in gloss black, you can get a good ET as well which helps me as the standard on the 16V is ET36 which is just to far in for me. As for weight 7.4Kg for a 16" x 7 rim

That's more than I thought, my Rotas are about 7,2kg per wheel

Braids look spot on!
The new 911 R-GT is equipped with Braids too.
Or if you have the money you could go for OZ Alleggeritas which are another bit lighter than the Ultras.

I've noted the Braid 5 spokes for my next buy, they look really nice, similar to the others i'm listing (Compomotive MO5, Speedline 2110, 3SDM 0.05, Team Dynamics Pro Race 3)
