most compomotives are V heavy...

pro race 1.2's or the 5 spoke versions are V light... got them on the vx and a 16" rim with 205 (heavy) tyre on weighs less than the 17" 175mm setup :D

EDIT: when I say comps I don't just mean MO's same with Revo's and RFX's. These companies do make other wheels.

Is that a hairdressers convention? lol

If you want uber-light wheels, look for Volk, Racing Hart, or Enkei. Oz Superleggararrarrarras are very light too.

Volk CE28N are 15x6.5 and only weigh 3.7Kg each; or the TE-37 in 15x6 also at 3.7Kg.

TH series isnt ;) Agreed that MO's weigh a ton though!

Most of the Speedline range seems to be comparitvely quite heavy!

Don't forget tyres can be damned heavy though, so you'd need to choose something light.
