Gram Light 57xtreme Look-a-Like Alternatives
 

I'm in love with the Gram Light 57xtreme but not sure that I can convince the wife to love them at the prices I've been seeing.

Can anyone recommend some alternatives that have the similar look that are more affordable.

Thanks in advance.

OZ Ultraleggera?

XXR 530
Rota WTC

Thanks for the suggestion guys.

I think from a pattern perspective the OZ ones look the closest.

The XXR looks like a mesh wheel but i do like the concavity.

The Rota also look more mess than split spoke. No concavity.

Forgestar has a new model coming out in the next few weeks callled the CF5V with a 10 spoke design. It's a similar split spoke design. It's not on the main website yet but they showed a few pics on their facebook page:

Custom made forged wheels, made in the USA, FR-S/BRZ fitment is available. About 40% less money than the Rays.

want to see the forgestar in bronze

That forgestar is 19" only at the moment.

The OZ superleggera looks similar, not look alike though. The 19x8 is forged. But, Not concave.




Edit. Damn, the ultraleggera might even be closer.

Those forgestar don't look anything like them, sorry.

The closest is the OZ, I'm deciding on buying them for my winter wheel or not right now. Tough decision ^_^

Sounds like you need to go get your balls back.

Times like these i'm glad i'm not married

For what they are, I think they are reasonably priced.

At any rate, don't settle, get what you really want. Save up and get the 57 xtremes.

you don't need wheels now, they are a luxury item, you can wait.

Yell at them to make 18s

After almost 20 years of marriage I just don't bother telling her. I've learned it's easier to beg forgiveness rather than ask for permission.
