Hi, I am looking for a reasonably priced set of 14/15" wheels for a Saxo - road use.

I know this is Motorsport chat but I figured that you guys have experience with just about the lightest wheels on the market.

I have a price for C5 steelies, £50 odd but I really want "alloys" such as rota slipstreams.

If not, what are the alternatives?
N.B. I'd rather find a direct fitment, no spacers, spigots or adaptors.

Thanks

VTS rims weigh a fair bit, nearer 10kg than 5.

205 1.9 GTi Speedlines? Or any speedlines for that matter...

Compomotive MOs? Speedline Corse? both solid dependable wheels often found on competion pugs and citroens all over the place.

Get the set of citroen c5 rims they are a light alloy not 100% steel and are remarkably light for a standard rim.

Compo Mo's are a good wheel very strong but also very heavy, more of a rally wheel than a circuit wheel.

I've got some 18" mo's for the tuscan and they literally weigh twice as much as the dymags..yikes
