    Traklite Wheels

    http://www.traklitewheels.com/

    Has anybody heard of these? I was just wondering about the weights of these. I like a couple of them and if they don't weigh a ton I may get some for the right price.

    Never mind. I saw some of the weights on the website. But I don't know how accurate those are.

    Interesting a website with ZERO info regarding their product. Do you really want to spend your $$ like that?

    I saw that Sears sells them which is interesting. I have a Sears account. But I like the BBS reps, SSR Comp reps, and the RPF1 reps. But I haven't decided yet what I am going to do. I have a set of DR19s on my car that came with it so I don't really need any right now.

    I Actually like these. I would pick up a set of bbs reps. They are probably cast iron like all other reps, weigh 30 pounds with a tire and indestructible.

    If that's the case, I'll get a set for my Expedition.

    Dude all rep wheels are super heavy, get used to it. I run OG Sans and they are 15x8 with a 205 tire. 30 pounds. But if I had 6Ul's, it would be 24 pounds a corner. Its only 6 pounds and if your car is for cruising, then it won't hinder you too much.

    I've hated on knock-offs in the past. I was wrong to do that. People have limited choices on a limited budget.

    As a designer, knock-offs bother me, but it also makes me consider that they push the innovation and development for new ideas.
