Guys,

Plan to go light weight rim to replace on my existing heavy JRD rim.
RPF1 with 4.4kg / rim quoted RM2400. However, Lenso with 5.8kg / rim quoted RM 1100.

Understand that Lenso is mfg from Thailand, and is quite fresh for me on the rim quality. Therefore, would like to ask for opinion on Lenso rim. Any user here? can share? Thanks.:hmmmm:

boyzone,

Whose the dealer you are buying from ? Lenso has a good reputation. I might plan to change to them in future.

I hunted around the internet for a Lenso Malaysian distributor. Didn't find anything useful until I came across this company called Kai Shen Marketing and check out the Lenso Maglite wheel :-

Kai Shen Marketing Sdn Bhd ::

It's the same wheel that was used by my friend Bill Sherwood when he participated in Merdeka Millennium Endurance race :-

Bill Sherwood's Merdeka Millenium Endurance race experiences

I guess it must be one of the lighter Lenso wheels and it certainly looks really good. Pity I can't use it since my car PCD 114.3 and the Maglite is a PCD 100. I saw a set with my own eyes before fitted to another Corolla and the minimalist 4-spoke design is very attractive on the car since you can see all tthe brake-discs and calipers.

KL, Malaysia
lenso is good and cheap. i'd put them on par or better than taiwan manufacturers. they also OEM to a US brand and sold in the states under that brand.

depending on your car and colour, i would select the RPF1 if its suitable. especially if its the white one and your car is yellow, blue or black.

I will bring weight machine to there when I want to purchase.
Maglite have a great look, and of coz, still no idea with the weight.
So far, I only know 1 rim ( like Light-2 ) with 5.8kg quoted with 1.1k for 15 inch , and VPD is another rim which is have a good rating from web.

Now, the most important for me is look for the authorize dealer :biggrin:

hehe....I am also seriously considering converting to PCD 100. All the really nice rims are almost exclusively PCD 100.

Will keep you in view bro. I'm running 14" at the moment. Once I wear out the rubbers, will start hunting for suitable 15".
