    Here you go!

    p.s. The company that makes these used to be part of Circle Wheels but they spun off the aluminum wheel division and it became Spin Werkes...

    Stop the presses! I just found the new standard for IT racing! They are 6 pounds! And at $12K per set they will make them in any size/bolt pattern/offset you want!

    Hey while we are at it lets make the whole car carbon fiber (plus steel fibers so magnets stick) and paint it black! stealth plus light weight and no one will spot you on the track or the tech station. I am sure they can make any body style for you. And all for 6-7 grand!!! no wait 600-700 grand??? "OOPS" Now back to reality.

    I to would like to invest in a couple sets of wheels......I havn't yet "upgraded to the 15 inch wheel....that we are allowed now. I would be interested in 10 poundish wheels..... We pay what?....750 for a new set of hoosiers?...for a weekend or two of use......wheels are for ever, well sorta if you can keep from rubbing on stuff... $2000- even 3000 for a set of wheels, really is cheaper then a new set of hoosiers.... My set off panis have lasted several years now.....

    Love to hear of options ...

    If you can spend the 2k, I'm not sure there is a better option than the Volks.

    David... I went through the same process when I went to the 15's. First I talked to the Hoosier guys and they said there was very little reason to change from a tire standpoint. The only "upgrade" was to brake cooling. Just a little bit more room for airflow, especially at tracks like CMP. But for me the necessity came from the fact that my 14's were heavy and worn out. I needed new wheels anyway so I went for it.

    The really hard part comes in finding a wheel with the right offset. The Panasports are great but they are heavy (by comparison). There are a lot of other wheels, SSR, Kosei, etc. but they are all offset too much requiring a thick spacer. I felt like that defeated the purpose of finding a light weight wheel.

    Then I came across the Spinwerkes wheels and problem solved. You can get them for less than $200 each and they weigh around 12 pounds. If you are really determined to get down to 10 lbs each you will pay about double. (Volks come to mind, and you will probably wait forever to get them shipped).

    I don't know much about the Team Dynamics but it might be worth the effort. Let us know!
