Get the forged Sportecs. They´re REALLY light, under 20 lbs front and just over 20 rear.

Well if you go with the electoral college majority and go with the many spoke type wheel...Don't get the Sportecs...get Fikse!!! They are a superior wheel and much lighter...arguably one of the best wheels made.

Britt:
Both look great, and the obvious answer in matters of taste, of course, is that the eye of the beholder defines beauty. In any event, Britt, I would ask *you* for *your* opinion since your eye for composition is a darn good one...your pictures of cars at the Boca meet, especially the composed pictures, are great. Based on that evidence, I think your opinion is worth more than most the rest of us who don't deal with design daily.
