i am going to get a new set of 17" wheels, and relegate my sidewalk's "night spoke" wheels for winter use. the night spoke reportedly weighs about 20 lbs. i have bc coils, which neccessitated a 5 mm spacer to avoid rubbing with the shock bodies. brakes are probably going to stay with stock calipers, and continue to switch carbotech bobcats for daily driving and xp8's for the track. lugs are 14mm. i'm running dunlop direzza star spec 215/45-17's. so im thinking: oz ultraleggera in black or graphite, enkei rpf1 in black, and motegi tracklites (forged) in black. the cost between these doesn't matter to me....so what would you choose and why? any alternatives in the 15 lb. range? thanks!

 

Other options in lightweight wheels are the Enkei RS+M, although they are a shade over 15 lbs., and if you can wait a bit, the new OZ Alleggerita HLT sounds very promising, estimated at 13.8 lbs in a nine spoke pattern.
Those you mentioned are pretty good choices, the RPF1's in particular look great in 17", whereas the 16" version looks a little small due to the lip design.

 

thanx, i'm leaning ultraluggera, as it will eliminate my present need for spacers. the new oz's are tempting, but probably over my price point.

 

At 15 lbs and at less than $200 each I bought these Kosei K1 from Tire Rack.

I had SSRs before on another car I used on the track and really liked them. Forged and very durable. About 14-15 lbs for 17" ...

 

+1 for SSR's.Strong ,light,rarely seen out on the roads.(Not sure what the changes are to product line after they changed ownership?)I love 'mine.I was leaning to the Kosei's as a 2nd choice when I was in the market for wheels a year ago(1/2 The $)
