Ah, I misunderstood. I thought you meant heavier than the steel ones, although it seems with many of the "stylish" rims, weight is comparable to steels.

Miata wheels are usually 12/$0.10, honestly. Enkei made most of them though, so they're at least a decent brand wheel. BBS made some too, those aren't so great... but the VW BBS wheels are awesome... go figure.

Lots of VW's are 4x100 as well, as are base model Chevy Cobalt, many Ford Escort, etc.
