Questions about Carlsson 1/5s
Well, I've decided I want bigger lips on the rear wheels of my car, I have a few questions before making my mind up about which wheels to go to, my first option is just get some 18 x 10s for the rear, but do they make the 1/5 in 18 x 10?
Another question is, does anybody know what the weight is for 18 x 8, 18 x 9 and 18 x 10 Carlsson 1/5???
Will I gain time by switching to a lighter wheel suchas OZ Super Legara? 18 x 8 are only 19 lbs!

You will definitely gain time by switching to lighter wheels. No question about it.

that dark finish on the OZ wheel looks good on a black car. But I thought you wanted a deep dish with a big lip. Maybe it is time to get some custom forged wheels. The Intro Forged lineup:

Thanks, I'm looking into those wheels.
I would give up on the idea of the deep lip for 18 and 19 lbs for each front and rear wheel. OZs weight 18 lbs for 18 x 8 and 19 lbs for 18 x 9.
Folks at Itro Forged are looking into weights, I'd go for those because of the lip if they are only 2 or 3 lbs heavier.
