Default 18" lightweight wheels for track?

Does anyone have any recommendations for an 18" wheel (preferably forged) that's strong and light for track use?

Thanks, Karl

Default P5 Wheels

you might have to call and see if they'll make the fitment you need. all of their wheels are built to order, so it shouldn't be a problem.

btw, these were recommended to me by a good friend of mine who is a metallurgist and engineer...these are the wheels he put on his Carrera S, if that tells you anything.<ul><li><a href="http://p5wheels.com">P5 Wheels</a></li></ul>

Default How much are you willing to spend?

They're pricey, but Fikse or HRE are the ultimate and are made to order to any size, offset, finish, style, etc. I've owned two sets of Fikse (17 and 18) and one set of HRE (190.
