Default Performance Wheels in Perth

Hey guys,

Does anyone know of any specific shops in Perth that sell light weight rims?

I mean... The lightest weight rims ( not " performance rims " or " racing rims " )

forged or cast i don't care, 5x100 with around 35 - 40 offset 8" for a custom GC-8 ?

Nick

This might be of some assistance.
Should have the weights of most of the rims available on the market, from there you should be able to come up with a short list of rims that you can then go shopping for
