Lightweight wheels for a C2S
I recently asked about purchasing the Kinesis SuperCup wheels for my new 98 C2S, and someone commented that they are heavy. I really like the looks of the 3pc SuperCup or even a 3pc Twisted spoke wheel, but does anyone know just how much they all weigh and which SuperCup wheel would be the best? Alesio, Speedline, Kinesis, etc.
Thanks, ChrisK

All Supercup wheels are heavy. If you want light weight wheels consider Fikse, Kinesis K-series, BBS LM, SAC, Forgeline.
Personally, I like 19" SAC 3-piece, they are forged and very light but expensive. <img src="graemlins/crying.gif" border="0" alt="[crying]" />

People always say Supercups are heavy, I don't know what they are talking about...
18" Speedline (for Porsche, not aliseo) weights are: 20.95 lb and 23.15 lb, that's less than 18" BBS LM (22.20 lb/ 23.25 lb)
