Yes, this place has become a wasteland.

Track Rs are reps but are lightweight reps.
If you don't want Rotas, check wheels out on Tire Rack. For example, these 15x7 Enkei Classics will cost you about 3400 AED shipped (and they look darn good):

the CPR is not available and the only one i found is 8k without shipping.

So maybe look at some rota's, one tht r tried and tested.

Very average weight for cast wheels of this size and price if you ask me. You gotta pay to play, get the Enkei RPF1 if you are looking for very light wheels (9 lbs)

I currently drive on 11lbs. Its just right.

All honda real enthusiasts know,weight plays a significant role for a honda.

Thanks though for the suggestion. The gold does look beautiful. Let's see what else is out there...
