Default light weight wheels

Iam thinking about ditching the fat cheap 20x10 sport max 006s that are a good 35 40lbs each for a light 19s around 20 to 25 lbs. I've been looking at SSR type C, 19x9.5 or Enkie RPF1 in the same size. But iam not sure what else is really out there. So give me some ideas of nice light wheels. and no smaller then 19x9.5 or bigger then 19x10.

And YES i know i could lose more by going with 18s but i dont want to go down 2 inchs in rim size....my wheel wells are huge....

Oh and i really like TE37s BUT they cost way to much....iam looking for something less then 800 a wheel....more like 500, 600 at the most.

CCWs come in a shit ton of styles.







Those are the ones listed for ford, I'm sure you could find other ones that fit your bolt pattern/offset

bbs 3 piece are some of the lightest strongest wheels you can buy, and some of the most dead sexy wheels as well

i am going with a black rim for sure. i looked at CCW, nice stuff but nothing that jumps out at me. BBS, again, love them, but RKs and LMs are more then TE37s. So far SSRs are winning. iam liking the imput though, keep it coming.
