Hello guys
I’m new here, if this is a repost forgive me.
I have an AWD S-10 truck that will take the same
wheels as the F-Body and Y-Body cars, I can
run a 9” wide up front and a 11” in the rear.
Are there any light weight wheels on the market
that don’t have to be custom made and don’t
cost $2500-3500 a set?
I would like a set of 16x9’s.
Thanks Chris

I dont know of any wheels below that price range. But i definatley know of some in that price range(ccw,iforged,fikse). If you have an all wheel drive why no put some off road wheel on it?

I dont think you will get the best of both worlds cheap and light weight. If you want major reduced wheel weight it will cost but here is a quote from an old post. Hope it helps.
