I Searched, yada yada...

Anyways, I dont wana spend the money to buy rims, im not all about the bling bling if ya know what i mean. So, can the stock rims be machined to shed a few pounds? I've asked around and no one can give me a straight answer, any ideas guys> I figure they are steel so they should be prety strong. >Thanks

Got my 11 pound TODA flywheel in!:ylsuper

1999+ G20 rims are a close-enough substitute. Pretty much the same, just with an Infiniti logo.

If you want those rims with the Nissan logo in the US, some USDM S14's had it, but to my understanding theyre very rare.

I dont think you can machine a rim without screwing up it's load rating and all that bull****. i know light rims are expensive, but nonetheless, they are a good investment
