It seems we still have VERY few aftermarket options for ET60 wheels. My guess is all the aftermarket wheel manufacturers are just taking measurements of fender clearance and don't quite realize that there is a large group of buyers just waiting for a near ET60 wheel because of suspension geometry preferences (I'd be happy with ET55-60, but nothing less). (https://jalopnik.com/heres-why-the-new-honda-civic-type-r-doesnt-suffer-from-1820372999) (short answer ET60 = no torque steer, ANY other offset will have torque steer, that's just physics, but some claim that the torque steer isn't noticeable with small changes in offset.)
The only two options I've found that are exactly ET60, it seems, besides the OEM FK8 wheels, are the
OEM 19x8.5 ET60 FK2 wheels and custom wheels (see next point)
weight 26 pounds
from tegiwaimports.com
$1642 for a set shipped to USA
UPDATE: You can custom order lightweight forged wheels from CCW
The corsair C10 can be made in ET60 and CCW claims it fits the front brake calipers
8.5X18 through 9.5X18
$892 for 8.5X18 list price, but I'm sure you could negotiate a small discount for a club membership or motorsports use
I didn't check weight, but likely 20 pounds or less
The NSX wheels are 19x8.5 ET55
weight 18.8 pounds
$560 a wheel plus shipping and tax
If you're okay with ET53:
There's also now the OZ Ultra Leggera HLT
19x8.5 ET53
weight 21.95 pounds
$420 a wheel plus shipping and tax tirerack
and Motegi MR924
19x8.5 ET53
weight 22.4 pounds
$254 a wheel plus shipping and tax tirerack

I respect those who don't think having an ET60 offset matters, I'm not trying to convince anyone, but I think there is a market for ET60 none-the-less for us OCD engineering types.
