Lightweight would be cool, but budget is $1000 max for rims.

Re: silverGPXs Ride
I'd be wary of buying grids.... The paint is pretty crap.
Nick's onto his second set, and two days after getting them they already have paint chipping.

If they have poke with stretch they will chip from the stuff being shot out from the back wheels on the lip anyway.
