2nd Generation chrome not doing it anymore.

currently I have 17" verde diamonds on my 91 dx. I am looking for a change because I think these rims are affecting the car in a bad way. I want something in a 5 spoke and lightweight. not 50lbs per rim and tire thats on my car now. something like the wheels on this XK jaguar:

Rays/Volk GT-C Face 2'??



Or any Rays wheel for that matter
Check out some of my pics in Show n Share, my rims (ANZ brand 17") look similarish to those on the Jag.

Why aren't you doing the chrome anymore? Is it because you were flamed down in your other thread?

If you are ready to spend money, you can get Rays/Work wheels, but that is $$$. If you want lighter, just go to some reasonable 16's or 15's with good tires. I have 16" Celica GTS wheels. They are noticably heavier than the 14" stock wheels, but the better tires make up for it.
