Can someone recommend a set of track rims?

Guys,

I am looking for a set of track rims to put some Toyo R888 tires on. I am looking for something lightweight and relatively inexpensive. Obviously as these are track rims, I dont care much about looks. I run the stock rims on a daily basis with Pilot Sports and need a set of track rims. Any suggestions would be really appreciated!

Porsche 18" 996 turbo hollow spokes, forged, light, cheap. R6 Hoosiers on 18" rims were my track weapon of choice.

If you want to combine some looks with your light track wheels. Have a look at Champion's MS61 Forged Magnesium wheels.

OZ Superforgiatas, very light, strong and menacing looking.

My 2 sets of slicks and rains are all mounted on OZ Alleggerita HLT's. Strong, light, and not a killer price-wise.

Curious, would 996 turbo wheels fit 997TT with PCCB?

Non pccb, easily, not sure about pccbs. I'm not sure of the size difference btwn the 996tts pccbs and the 997tt pccbs.
