Default Lightweight 16" wheels

I'm now down to just the one S2000 and I'm looking to buy some lightweight 16" wheels for it. I'm quite happy with the way the car looks, rides and handles on the stock 16" wheels but would like something a little lighter for when out on the track.

Seems there isn't really a great deal out there except for either the stock wheels or JDM versions.

Does anyone know of any that would fit this requirement?

BBS JDM 16's

Very rare and fetch around the £600 mark for a set.

I got a set on my car - https://www.s2ki.com/s2000/topic/112...-an-s2000-blog

Yep agree with Robin, if you want lightweight 16" wheels then really these are the only option correct size and offset too inevitably.
Again very rare, I looked for nearly 2 years to find a set at a half decent price.

Im in the same boat here really and trying to find a set of BBS is super hard. Nevermind for a decent price. Is there no real aftermarket options that suit?
