out of the ones you are looking at i gotta go with everyone else and say the dxr's and mahifish has the right idea look at some lighter wheels!
do you have a suspension yet? i would do that before wheels!

Talk of ATXs is prohibited on neons.org, it is blasphemy and will invoke the wrath of the MTX elitests.

Traklights are also lighten your wallet too. You can get 16x7 DXR's on ebay for about 350 shipped w/o tires. If your gonna auto-x i would get a second set of wheels, that are lighter and with better tires
