Gramlights should be called Gram-notso-lights. I have 57s myself. They're not that light. Kosei has some really light ones, but can't remember the model, sorry. If you want, I can weigh my Gramlights for you. Go magnesium if you want hardcore lightness ;)

maybe so but plastic is an insulator so it dosnt transfer heat very well so very bad brake fade will kick in and that defeats the purpose for a track car or even a DD.

now if it can handle the power of a drag car then it would be good lol

Kosei K1 are light, those starions are nice and light too

i saw this one wheel in a super street mag, and it was just a plastic wheel with a thin layer of rubber around it like almost not even half a inch anyone heard of anything like that??

Ayuaddict 06-23-2007 10:12 PM
