I don't think there's anything 'better' than an RPF1, only different and slightly more expensive on the $/weight scale. Or cheaper if you're willing to sacrifice a pound or two.
I did try that with that thread but when I see things claiming like 13lbs vs. 20 for OEM and I don't see people using them at autocross I get a little skeptical. Also a lot of the stuff that I would expect to have weights there actually doesn't. I figure the best source of good information on wheels for C-Street is the C-Street thread...

I've seen plenty of RPF1s locally. Just not sure what else is out there. I know the RPF1s are a cheap, reliable option but I wouldn't be averse to paying $100-$200 more a wheel if it's a few pounds lighter.
