What are the lightest 17's that still look hot on a max and are good quality?

Volk(TE37, GT7, LE37T or K, etc) and SSR(Comps, GT1, etc) are the two most popular brands. If you have a 4th or 5th gen, get 18's. The 17's in either one of these look too small. IMO.

Apparently Subzero wheels (lots of clones I think, like Konig and Rota?) are only about 16.9 lbs in 17" size. Offset is +45 though, so keep that in mind...

^ Something like 23-24 pounds each I believe. Oh and BTW, I dont think the SSR GT1s are particularly light, The Comps are like 5 pounds less I think.

How do I know if my wheel bearing is bad or if it's both my bearing and hub?
