- 18 Mazda CX5 AW
Looking to downsize to a 16" rim on CX5 non-turbo so could get extra sidewall
and maybe lose some more un-sprung weight.
Was going to downsize to old Mazda tribute 5-spoke wheels similar in offset, centerbore, etc. to the cx5. Cheap and can be found under $100 each but the weight is still a heavy 25 lbs. Should hold up for off-road or any highway bumps/potholes, etc. They are equal in weight to my 17" BBS wheels.
Am having trouble locating all manufacturer info to compare wheels,
especially whether gravity cast, low-pressure cast, or tilt cast form flow. Some just say "cast" without specifying which type.
It also appears that there are very few if any comments or reviews on the web.
However, have narrowed down six choices that appear to go well with the Machine Gray. Have attached screenshots below. Any suggestions for which one to choose?
Volks are too $$$ and none of the Enkei's( incl the RFP1's) went well with the machine gray.
Does anyone have any bad experiences and or any preferences with any of the manufacturers below ?
Alutec(Rial)
Konig
American Racing
Radius
Liquid Metal
Montegi
