2014 14R

Setting it up to 1/4 mile mainly. Looking for lighter wheels.

To you guys and gals that have used aftermarket wheels. Which brand have you used? Weight difference? Noticeable gains?
Where did you buy them? And how much? And did you keep your kawi sprockets and rotor?

Thank you

Carrazeria....sorry can't tell you the weight dif. Computer is OOC. The front is close to the weightof a BST but the rear is heavier. For the price, it's a better bang for the buck than BST but I'd take BSTs any day. The rear CZ will take your OEM rotor and I am nearly positive it also takes the OEM sprocket. Definitlely has the same size rotor bolts. The front takes CBR1k rotor bolt pattern and the bolts are smaller than OEM so do NOT use OEM torque spec on the front rotors. These are CZ Tri-R wheels which are no longer made for the 14...the new CZ wheels for the 14 are a tad heavier. Great looking wheels though no matter which you have. As far as gains, I never timed it. My butt tells me there is a little gain. I actually felt LESS stable cornering with the lighter rims until got used to them.
