Dirt cheap lightweight 15's?!?!

http://www.corzotire.com/wheels.htm

What's the deal? They have a picture of the 15" Type C on the site but the name of their wheel is different...

Anyone want to call them? If the weight is true, that's a great price although I'm not sure how many of you guys want 15" wheels.

when 18's are readily avail in the $150 range and tires to boot are 120-130, not sure what getting a 15" rim is gonna do, I mean there are some cheap guys on this forum but that cheap?

The 15s are purely for racing. The closer the weight is to the hub, the better, it is all physics.

It means less unsprung weight.

Nealoc187 found some OEM Mazda 15s that fit the Maxima. Very light and cheap. You should PM him about them.

Consider some Rotas.

Very light, good build quality, and can be found for under $500 for a set of 4.

Thanks Mike!

You will break 13's soon enough. Confidence is key.

I just can't wait till I get new ECU Management and some more practice would help.
