What do you guys recommend for 15-inch wheels that are less than 12 lbs each? The Traklite 2.0s (black with machined lip) are $232 each. Most of the $99 wheels are 15 lbs or more - too heavy!

I think the Traklites are 10.8 lbs. Do you have a link for the Rotas with cost and weight?
Thanks!

I think those are all-black and are being redesigned for a May release. I really like the polished/machined lip and black center. The benefits of super-light wheels are many - faster acceleration, much better ride, and longer-lasting brake pads, to name a few.

that's just weight. The Slipstreams look like the only 15's under 12 pounds.
SSR Comps and Enkei RPF1's are light but not cheap.
Kosei K1's are relatively light and relatively cheap, as are Falken Hanabis

The traklight 2.0's weight is listed in Tirerack.com. There is another Tracklite that is 11 lbs, but $232 each is kinda high!

Rota slipstreams for the price and weight cannot be beaten.
:edit: Although I see these Flik wheels are the same thing.
I'll have to check those out!

sorry, I meant the slips are the only 15" ROTAS under 12 pounds.
