Default MK1 vs MK2 6GT3 wheels, what's the difference?

I can see the visual difference, but what about size, ET, weight?

Would they be a good track wheel, or skip?

Thanks.

They often show up in ebay.co.uk and pistonheads.com classifieds section here in the UK.

I'm looking for a 996 GT3Mk2 standard front wheel to make a set up.
