"Inexpensive" Lightweight Wheels?
Ideally, I would love to be able to put a set of $4k Volks, or something similar, onto the G. But, I just can't bring myself to spend that kind of money.
Are there any quality lightweight wheel brands that don't cost a small fortune?
And by lightweight, I am looking for something that weighs the same or less than the stock 19" Sport wheels.
I would love Japanese, but as long as they are of decent quality, I am happy.
Thanks for the help!
Looking for 20s btw, thanks.

So let me get this right: You want a quality wheel that is 20" that weighs less than a 19" wheel and don't want to pay the cost associated with a forged wheel?
Perhaps if you consider downsizing to 18s then you might find some lower costing lighter wheels, but to upsize and lose weight while not incurring a higher cost may be difficult.

But in my case, I'm trying to not increase my wheel weights, and even better, slightly decrease it.
So, if I could at least break even while moving up to 20s, I would be happy.
"Front:
Wheels: 19"x8.5". Cast aluminum. Made for Nissan/Infiniti by Enkei. Weight: 26.5 lbs. Bolt pattern 114.3 x 5 Offset +43
Rear:
Wheels: 19"x9". Cast aluminum. Made for Nissan/Infiniti byEnkei. Weight: 27.5 lbs. Bolt pattern 114.3 x 5. Offset +45"
Looks like these are the numbers I need to be working with.

However, I ended up putting quotes around the entire thread title...whoops.
I tried to edit the title after I posted, but only the post itself is editable.
So, by inexpensive, I really mean something that doesn't cost an arm and a leg. Just can't bring myself to spend $4K on a set of wheels.
And btw, I am finding it fairly difficult to search for wheels by weight. It's not even listed on many(most) sites.
