Thinking of downsizing my 19" Praetorias due to the terrible condition of the roads around Boston to some 18s. I have 17s for winter, so they'll take the worst of the roads, but the roads are still pretty crap in summer.
I'm looking at flowformed wheels to keep the strength high, but I'm a bit concerned about running something TOO light for durability reasons.
The wheels I'm considering:
Enkei Raijin, 20lbs, $210/corner
Oz Leggera HLT, 18.1 lbs, $299/corner
Oz Formula HLT, 21 lbs, $332/corner (without the stupid "centerlock" caps)
Neuspeed RSe12, 19ish lbs, $320/corner
Neuspeed RSe11, ? lbs, $310/corner
Any others I should look at around this price range? HREs are right out, and while I'd love some BBS CH-Rs, I just can't justify the extra $800! Should I be looking for something a bit meatier than these to keep strength up?
