Question lighter rims?

anyone have any info as to a supplier who makes lightweight aluminum rims to fit small 4 inch bolt pattern for early darts? i am looking to reduce my unsprung weight as i am currently running small bolt factory rally rims.

Default centerline

We run a set of centerline drag rims on our dart but we converted to 5 on 41/2 and they are superlight even with tires on them you could play catch with them super lose of unsprung weight.

Exclamation

Holeshot Racing Wheels in Bunnell, FL (just north of Daytona) may be able to make some. I'm at work and don't have access to their regular line prices or site showing them in more detail. They are a just a bit more than the "garden variety" rims, but less than the race-only versions. But they are not for street use. I like them because they are a good compromise between price, weight and durability. (386) 437-7888

Email me at home to remind me and I'll send you a link that shows the wheels in more detail.

They also have a "star" version. Other styles are planned, but don't know the designs or availability dates.

The last I knew, American Racing had Outlaw IIs in small bolt pattern. I think they still do. They are also about half the cost of Centerlines.
