Hot deal for 4x100 FWD offset 15s?  The ALT LiteSpeed might interest you.  I
have these on my MR2.  They only come in 15x6.5", 4x100mm, and FWD offset.
You also need to use thin-wall "tuner" lugs with them.  But they are
12-13lbs and inexpensive.  I paid $115 each over a year ago, which included
hubcentric rings and center caps.  I have several pictures of the ALTs on my
car in this directory: http://home.earthlink.net/~bryan64/pics/shine/hires/

Rota also has the Slipstream, which IIRC is 12lbs and $100 each in 15x6.5".
15x7" Kosei K1s are $140 and 13lbs I believe.

There are of course lighter wheels available.  But not at these prices. :)
