Light weight street wheels?
Ok I did a search before posting this so sorry if its up there some where and just find it.
Im looking for some 17" light weight wheels that will be used for track/street. I love the look of the TT2's but to my understanding is they weigh a ton. Is there anything out there that doesnt cost $3000+ that Im looking for?

so 16-17Ibs a piece and $1300 shipped. sounds like a stellar deal. and are the 17" version of the Street Lite's fitting on the f-body without issues? the F-body Street lite on the site only lists a 15" rim.

Yes the 17" will fit without issues. That was already checked on paper since we have all the measurements for the redesigned 15". This wheel will also be fitted for the proper Backspacing for the right look, without rubbing.
The F body came with 16" wheels stock, So when you try and go down in a size that they had a bigger size on for brake clearence issues, You run into a problem.

I'd just go with some OEM 17" wheels.
Camaro ten spokes (painted): 22 lbs.
Camaro SS/"ZR1" style (painted): 20.5 lbs.
They can be had relatively cheap ($200-$300) in good condition.

I was under the impression that there were problems with these wheels, and the website doesnt show a 17", im very interested in these wheels and was jsut wondering if anyone out there could help me out.

there are wheels with the 15" Street lites and fitment which is now handled.
The 17" has not been released yet, i am looking at a few weeks still, and there website does list them here.
