Does anyone make a lite weight 15' or 16' inch rim in a 6 lug?

Not much for off the shelf options but quite a few custom (ie pricy) options. I personally want a full set of Bogart D6's but just can't swallow the price tag on them. Billet Specialties is starting to get into racing wheels. Maybe they will come out with a Street Lite in a 6lug.

Mine is a 05 so 15' will work.. I like the rims on the blue truck.. 18lbs aint bad! The ones i found were 25lbs! I use to run a set of drag lites on my truck, they were off a old school 6 lug ford and i had to drill the holes out slightly larger but they were super lite and worked great. I hate i let them get away from me.

I like Bogarts. My old 15x10's were 8, almost 9 lbs! They are pricey, but to me, if you are going to get a race wheel, the whole concept is to save weight, and there is not a better light weight race wheel than Bogart.
