    I'm on the search for some smaller 16" (or 17" max) light alloys, what's worth considering these days?

    Something around 7.5" wide and ET45 would be ideal

    Without going back to check... OZ Alleggerita's are a very light wheel and Ultraleggera's are just slightly less so, both are (were a year ago) available in 16".

    Not sure if 7.5" is available with the 16"'s, might have to go up to 17" for that.

    Damn those OZ designs are old, has there really been nothing to improve upon them yet?

    Found these which get close:

    https://www.tegiwaimports.com/bola-b2r-alloy-wheel.html - 7.85kg for 17x7.5
    https://alloywheelshop.com/collecti...-gloss-black-72-6mm-cb?variant=40512054460624 - 8.25kg for 17x7.5

    What wheels did you get? Appreciate it if you share some photos, too! We'll be looking for some ideas for the new GTI project. We're almost done with the Wrangler project after we mounted the shocks, jeep wheels, and rear bumper so we might start working on her next week.
