looking for lightweight track rims

[kahmann]

Any opinions on a good road race rim at a decent price? The SVT rims I have are way too heavy to be running on the track. I'd prefer an 18x10 or 18x10.5 that weighs less than 25#. Thanks for any input, pics, or links.

what brakes are you runnng ..??? Any that will interfer with offset ... I.E GT500 Brembos..ETC...ETC...

And what color would you like (slow day at work in Iraq, dont mind surfing for ya)

the 99-04 starfish wheels are 17lbs each.....very light!
They are of course only 17x8's......

But you can get a whole set with tires for less than 400 bucks lol

The forged rim wheels from TSW will work for you. I just got a set in 20" I weighed the 20x10.5 and it weighed 24.5 lbs. The 18"s are lighter yet.

I'm running the GT500 Brembo's FYI.
Thanks for the leads so far fellas. I prefer black rims, but I can always get them powdercoated black, if they're too good to pass up.

Running the GTC01's and they are a great wheel for the money, close to forged weights for cast money.

These would be great options, but they're not built wide enough. I need at least an 18x10 but prefer an 18x10.5 or 18x11. Thanks for looking though, I appreciate it.

These are beautiful wheels, but still a little more than I want to spend. Thanks for the input man.

18x10 to clear brembos..hmmm (this is what im ussing and i run an extra set for my DD) I have GT500 Brembos as well I have the 18x9 with 275 all the way around but will be using the 18x10 with 285 all the way around - 99-04 offset clears the Brembos perfectly.
