If you’re looking for one of the coolest rims money can buy, German specialist “Wheelsandmore” has the answer to your prayers: the “Megalight-Forged-Series”. These two piece wheels combine carbon-fiber rims with ultra light alloy centers and titanium screws (approximately 40% weight savings compared to a stainless steel screw).

According to the “Wheelsandmore”, the 20-inch version of this technically advanced carbon-fiber / alloy wheel weighs a mere 6 kg or about 13.2 lbs. That’s compared to 18 kg or approx 40 lbs of a standard same-size alloy wheel. But nothing comes for free as a set of 20-inch Megalight Forged Series wheels cost €20,000 or $29,000. The carbon-fiber / alloy wheels are available in 18 to 23’’ sizes.

Give me a 15 or 16 incher with a decent design and I'll pick up a set.

If a 20" weighs like 13lbs, a 15/16 would be like, what? 7lbs? Rock that ****.
